Amazing experience, sunrises, sunsets, landscapes, sea, all fabulous.
Eyes and heart full of joy.
Max very prepared and attentive to everyone's needs.
Beautiful holiday. Thank you????
Massimiliano is a very, very competent, energetic, all-rounder, very attentive skipper. He was always available to find solutions that would satisfy the crew and able to put everyone at ease with his wide smile. Whenever possible he opened the sails and we sailed with only the sound of the sea and the wind, a unique pleasure! By unanimous decision we have always slept at anchor in total silence, broken only by the great laughter that we made thanks to the harmony that was created between the guests.
The boat is quite comfortable, the interiors are bright although not very large but there is everything you need. Maybe to improve the yield of the fridge, to be able to have cold beer at sunset ;-).
In general, for those looking for a holiday in which to go wild a little, whose protagonists are sea, wind and sun (and the galley :-)), this is a right choice. Hurrah.
Unforgettable holiday! First experience on the boat and it left me a crazy memory! Max managed to convey all his passion in every single moment. It was able to convey so much tranquility even with really adverse wind situations!
Max at the beginning of the holiday promised me the wind and so it was.
Experienced skipper, transmits his passion for the sea, transforms 6 perfect strangers into a fantastic CREW.
So many different emotions in just one week!
Massimiliano shared and argued in a clear and flawless way the program changes,
He is a man of character who instills confidence... Engaging and exciting holiday!!
Thanks 1000.
Max was a wonderful skipper, he gave useful advice during navigation and during a difficult time of bad weather, he has incredible experience and professionalism. The holiday was very nice I have only positive memories.... mamma mia what a laugh!!!
Max is the best sailor and instructor I have ever known. Great expert of the sea and connoisseur of people. Always create optimal conditions on the boat among the crew teams to learn sailing while having fun. In addition, its extreme abilities give the serenity and tranquility you seek on a boat. Max is probably the skipper with the greatest culture and intelligence (not only sailing) I have met. In short, recommended!
I sailed for three days with Max and I highly recommend it to all those who love the sea and who want to learn not only the technique but also the philosophy of sailing.
Very pleasant atmosphere on board! Max is a skipper/instructor who is very attentive, precise and at the same time flexible. It meets all needs, whether educational or holiday, and leaves wide discretion about the commitment on board. At the nautical level, his 40-year experience is felt, not only in the cockpit, but also in the kitchen. His Carbonara defines for me the year zero. There is no turning back. Good wind!
Great experience of Max, depth of technical explanation of the maneuvers (operation combined rudder / propeller) that is not easy to find in all courses of this type. Nice practical experience of maneuvers!
A splendid bridge of the Epiphany. Max is a very good sailor: professional, competent and nice. Never intrusive. The icing on the cake is his carbonara. To be repeated!
Defining Max as a skipper is simply an understatement.
It would be like calling Picasso a good painter.
It exudes experience, expertise and passion.
Fantastic night sailing with dolphins.
A super experience.
Thanks Max!
I have been taking holidays by boat for 22 years now and this was among the most beautiful for the sum of night navigation, which made us gain usable time during the day, every evening a ride on land (in places like Cannes, S. Tropez, Porquerolles) even if we slept in the harbor, the beautiful sea of the Côte d'Azur and a sincere thanks to the advice and experience of MAX. See you soon!!!
Holiday with miles of intense and beautiful navigation: the Sol Calao boat, a Stag 50 with slender lines, makes you live an experience for real sea wolves who love to sleep at anchor and long navigations even at night. The skipper Max, very nice and convivial, is very prepared and really available to share the secrets of sailing with his crew. He created a beautiful atmosphere on board, cooked us an exceptional carbonara and a fantastic Cacio e Pepe.
Very sporty holiday in beautiful places.
A huge THANK YOU to Max!!!
Massimiliano was a crazy teacher, it was a fantastic experience that we can't wait to repeat.
The course program was widely respected and the organization impeccable! Max has transmitted to us a great passion for the sea, sailing, nature, conviviality.
We learned to plan the navigation of the high seas from the galley, to the first checks, to safety by calculating routes and navigation times. We have applied the rules of day and night precedence and the procedures to face a slightly more intense wind, All in a cheerful and absolutely fun atmosphere!
Cristina and Adlan
Bring a soft bag (no trolley no wheels) and put in the clothing
suitable for the season: waxed or windproof jacket. two fleeces,
gloves, a wool hat and heavy trousers for morning cruises, a
sweatshirt and maybe a swimsuit and a beach towel (because if you
feel like it, I'll soon bring you a winter diving suit and take a
dip) ... a beauty for hygiene, a pillowcase, a sleeping bag, shoes
with clear soles or purely boat soles that you will only use on
board without ever taking them ashore. I like to cook but if you
want to propose some of your specialties I will be by your side and
I will be sous-chef. Those who cook do not wash the dishes, do not
interpret this cruise inclusive of hostesses, yes to relaxation but
we will all have to participate in maintaining order and
cleanliness. Yes, you can smoke aft and downwind! Yes, you can
sing, dance, sleep, eat when you want, be a carnivore or vegan, you
can use (if you want) my teachings to learn how to sail.
