Our first sailing experience couldn't get any better. We didn't know what to expect and what it was went far beyond imagination. Umberto is a person of great serenity and exceptional competence. Excellent cook that does not hurt! We hope to meet again soon for a new adventure.. the Apulian and the Venetian!!

Umberto is an exceptional skipper able to combine experience and professionalism with friendliness and fun, accompanying the crew to discover enchanting places. Comfortable boat equipped with all comforts. Experience to be repeated.

Thank you Umberto for the unforgettable holiday :-)

My very first experience on a sailboat lasting 3 days is summed up in one word: WONDERFUL???? The skipper Umberto was really fundamental for the success of this weekend that I will carry forever in my Heart. Umberto has been able to reconcile professionalism, hospitality and love for the sea as well as being an excellent cook and attentive to any need. He introduced me to places that I did not know and taught us some basic rudiments to be able to know the sailboat and lead it to the sea, in short, an experience that I recommend to everyone. The icing on the cake was made by the other people on board with whom we immediately formed a very good relationship essential ingredient to live in close contact for several days with those you do not know. I am sure that soon I will return to live another experience at sea with Umberto and I sincerely hope also with the other people I have known. Thank you Sailsquare who allowed me to live all this.

We were guests of Umberto for two days, two magical days in which our Captain made us feel at home, taught us the basics of navigation and pampered us with his unbeatable cuisine. 2 days of relaxation mixed with adventure all stuffed with good food. Thanks Umberto we will be back taken ... your female crew ;-)

A beautiful holiday, first sailing experience: very positive! Magical seats and pleasant crew. Recommended for lovers of the sea and adventure.

In one word, a "fantastic" day that is all superlative!!! Umberto, the skipper, as well as being a very kind person and an excellent cicerone, is also an excellent cook. A tip ..... TRY WITHOUT HESITATION ps: a greeting to my travel companions :-)

First sailing holiday and I must say absolutely positive! A whole new experience and thanks to the professionalism of Umberto to be redone certainly because he transmits the love for sailing and for the sea. Wonderful and relaxing weekend.

Definitely positive experience! Both the blue fish festival and the places visited and the skipper were above expectations. Umberto is a competent captain who manages to put guests at ease: he lends himself to a pleasant cicerone both in explaining the places and in the sailing context. Definitely recommended! Ps: woe to talk about fishing at the beginning of the holiday otherwise you do not take anything.

But there are not 6 balls?? I just can't find something that didn't go well! A little rain but we can only blame the weather for this. Beautiful boat, clean and tidy equipped with all comforts. Umberto made us find a first galley so as to speed up the departure by asking us in advance our tastes. He is a passionate, prudent and capable skipper. Nice man, communicative .. his presence was important to make a group. He loves being with his guests although I have to say, we didn't really feel like that. We had a great time all together! Well, the crew also contributed a lot.. The Feast of Santa Candida was very suggestive and exciting. Ventotene always a unique island. It was worth living.. and why not relive it again next year. Weekend and skipper highly recommended!

Although it was only 3 days, the holiday was very intense. I did not know Ventotene and seeing it in Santa Candida was a continuous surprise, the musical band that went crazy all over the island, the local people who offered food, the concerts, the many fireworks, the colorful hot air balloons. All from a privileged position, in the Roman port a step away from the ramps. I find it hard to define Umberto as a skipper, as he was one of us, indeed many times he was at the forefront of fun , while acknowledging all the merits and the necessary experience that made us feel comfortable and feel in good hands.

Perfect "house" host and skipper competent, jovial and of excellent company. We were pampered for four days and despite the not perfect weather made us fully enjoy the boat, Ventotene and the feast of Santa Candida. We were greeted with procidana breakfast on board and galley made, at lunch he prepared us a nice impepata of mussels accompanied by various goodness. A skipper at the top...

For two "elderly" like us (66 years) the first cruise on a sailboat could put a bit of anxiety, in reality it was an experience that to say fantastic is to say little, especially thanks to our Umberto: very good, available passionate about the sea and the boat. He showed us lovely places and took us to snorkel at the most beautiful spots. Living on a boat, then, is an experience that I really recommend to everyone: it is priceless to look at the sea hearing only the sound of the waves, fall asleep and wake up with the rocking of the boat and the sound of the sea is the best cure against stress and insomnia that we have ever experienced

Umberto is a real sea wolf, thanks to his sympathy and his love for the sea he made us live an unforgettable experience! We explored pristine, gorgeous places! Wonderful holiday! Yes! To be redone!!!!

Perfect holiday! Umberto is a really nice person, always available, company and super professional. He managed to make this week unique. Thank you Umberto, that sunset I will carry in my heart forever.

After 10 years of sailing, the best welcome ever was this one with Umberto and Stefano. Fun, engaging, attentive. At the same time able to convey security and total serenity even in moments of (slight) difficulty. With an eye to allowing you to contain expenses. I recommend Umberto to anyone who wants to discover, or continue to discover even after 10 years, the magical world of sailing.

Colors, scents, sunsets, flavors, places, laughter and indescribable moments lived there, "addò' se vòtta 'o vverde 'int''o tturchino", as the song says. Umberto has been able to guide us masterfully in this holiday, satisfying the needs of all guests.

Umberto has been able to amplify the pleasure of being lulled by the sea for 6 days. A professionalism difficult to find.

What can I say... perfect holiday, Umberto organized everything under every detail and allowed us to fully enjoy the beautiful places visited. Patience and sympathy have been added to a great experience at sea, I hope to repeat in the future... Thanks Umberto!

Beautiful flotilla holiday, excellent crews, excellent "commanders". Wonderful friends and places, what more could you ask for.
