Week in Costa Smeralda!

What could we dream of better than a week on the samurai sailboat? On the program: sailing every day, swimming and nights at anchor in privileged places of the Corsican coast, but also in some ports that we had the pleasure of discovering (Calvi, Cargese, Girolata, Ajaccio). During this stay, my girlfriend Mathilde and I had the chance to meet Patrizio, Rachele, his partner, Giorgia, his daughter and Valerio, his son-in-law. Welcoming and open, they immediately integrated us and made us feel like a full member of their family despite the language barrier. They were attentive to our desires, needs & showed great flexibility. Thank you for the culinary discoveries, the warm meals under the stars, the sharing of knowledge in navigation, our long discussions... If you are looking for a human experience rich in sharing and emotions, do not wait any longer! Paulo & Maddalena

Unique Experience! I was a guest, together with my girlfriend Ilaria, of Patrizio and his daughter Giorgia in their sailboat for a relaxing cruise in the Maddalena archipelago. I do not deny that before meeting them I had some concerns, but as soon as I got to know them and the other couple who would share the week with us I immediately changed my mind. The boat clean with the right spaces to stay in intimacy and with all the necessary amenities. Patrizio and Giorgi were very kind, very prepared to manage sailing with all that entails, and super available for any of our requests, we asked for the return earlier than expected has changed more destinations but despite this Patrizio has always supported us without making a fuss, he made us feel at home. In short, a beautiful holiday of relaxation and laughter. I advise everyone to rely on Patrizio. We will definitely be back.

Patrizio as well as being a captain waiting is scrupulous to every detail to put you at ease, he is a true gentleman. We all decided insists the places to visit, I will definitely make an experience with him on the boat.

Expectation disappointed... I think that salisquare itself must make sure of all the requirements and demand that they are respected! The choice of the skipper to bring his loved ones has often affected the movements because they were afraid of the sea and felt bad, preferring to park in the ports or sparse to our detriment. To sail he would have liked an experienced crew to give him a hand, because what he received was not enough for him. The small cut to the bow was the beginning of the discussions and mockery, I expected that instead of proposing the early return would stop somewhere, like Palau, to fix it and to recharge even water, since it closed it without telling us and we were forced to wash ourselves with water bottles. When we realized it, the answer was that the pump was overloaded! From the 4 days I pulled the days so that the holiday ended as soon as possible and I could recover the serenity. Holiday to be cancelled!

"You wait a whole year to go on vacation and instead look for the first available flight back home." I did 2 other sailing trips, but I never found such a situation: the dirty boat, the fridge not always on, sockets not present to recharge the ce, broken radio, external lights absent and tender pierced with an exhaust engine and consequently you had to get to rows on the beach, alone, as the skipper did not accompany us. The program was not respected and you had to pray to him to see at least two coves a day, you always sailed by motor and sails not even the shade! I called salisquare while we were sailing but the answer was that the skipper had already been paid and as a result they couldn't do anything!!! The only positive note is that the skipper was kind in accompanying us to and from the airport due to the lack of taxis. There were also some pleasant moments, but few compared to the moments of tension experienced on board!

Holiday to forget! Nothing to do with the other facts... of sailboat we saw only the shade, it was a motor trip; every time you had to ask for the opening at least of the mainsail otherwise he preferred the engine! Very dirty boat, laundry tender and electric scooter that every time did not allow the arrival at the beaches without the use of oars. The skipper never accompanied us to the beaches, for the mooring it took an hour and he put himself at a long distance from the shore because for him there was never the seabed, and we, with the other couple, were forced to row desperately! On the third day he tore his bow a bit and, in addition to not fixing it in the race, he wanted to return the night before to repair it for the next holiday. It was a family holiday, as well as the boat was defined as family run! From being in 4 people we found ourselves in 6 people because he brought his partner and daughter and with a bathroom the management was not very easy

Patrizio is a careful and precise captain and owner, his boat is always in order and, as I knew him, I always will be. He is a man of great experience and a very kind, calm and condescending person. All this has given us a very pleasant holiday, seasoned with long evening chats and lots of relaxation, in short, an excellent company to travel and navigate. Don't let him fish... as per his admission he does not define himself as a fisherman :-)

We had a great time! Patrizio was a very good commander and was always more than helpful. It was a pleasure to discover the coves together and dine in spectacular bays... to the next trip...

Perfect holiday! Special thanks to the commander always quiet, accommodating and master of the situation. It was my first sailing experience and I was vaguely worried. Instead it went very well!! The boat was in very good condition!! The organization on board impeccable!! I hope to be able to do another ride soon
