The feast of S. Agata is one of the most popular in Italy: thousands of people, many of whom in the typical white habit, accompany the Santuzza "a vara" around the city for days, accompanied by candles, by the "calls" of the bearers and by the "answers" of the crowd. Special sweets, fireworks, barbacoa on street corners, for 3 days the city does not sleep and offers its oldest and most beating heart to the curious traveller.
The boat will be on the pier in the center of the party, a short walk from Piazza Duomo. But it will also be the means from which we will enjoy the spectacular fireworks of "the night of the 3rd", when we will move a little offshore to get the best overview.
On Sunday, however, he will take us sailing along the coast of mythology towards Acitrezza, an old fishing village whose small port opens between the stacks that the blinded Cyclops hurled at Ulysses who was fleeing.
After lunch we will return to Catania for the final night in the city.
Light, fast boat, perfect for sailing between the islands.
Owner's layout: large spaces, liveability and comfort, but also accommodates more people by transforming the dinette.
Great liveability in the exteriors: large gangways and a very large cockpit that extends to the open stern.
660 liters of water - solar panels - 2 electric winches - fridge, freezer, oven, electric toilet - dinghy and outboard - masks and fins - boards and floats

The boat is heated and is equipped with sheets and towels; Is breakfast included. The skipper is always on board, not only during outings but for every need. I am also available to help prepare meals, but lunches, dinners and kitchen service are not included.
