How it works

We are as flexible as you want, if something do not meet your needs contact us, we will do our best to help you!

  • Sailboat booking: you can either book the full boat for you (exclusive use) or just the cabins you need, meaning that during the cruise period you may share the boat spaces (kitchen, dinette, bathroom, main deck etc.) with other sailors!
  • Embarkation and disembarkation: embarkation and disembarkation takes place in the port where the sailboat is located or at any other agreed point from which you will reach the desired location. If you want to reach a place other than where the boat is already located, whether you are on board or not, the boat transfer will be part of the cruise!
  • Sailors on board: we carefully select our sailors before our trips to ensure that everyone can have an unforgettable experience. We put our best effort into selecting sailors who are polite, respectful of common spaces, and who share our sailboat principles: learn, have fun, and relax!
  • We are team players: on our sailboat each crew member is indispensable and will play a key role in maintaining order, cooking, and keeping common areas clean. In the cases where you do not want to worry about anything else we can take care of cooking and cleaning for you but subject to additional costs and arrangements.
  • Go with the wind: is our motto, anyway the schedule and itineraries can be planned at will among the coves and islands you most want to visit, always wind and weather permitting!
  • We listen the sea: remember that it is the sea that commands and decides, we are only guests and careful observers of its wonders: weather and sea conditions are predictable but could change quickly! Safety on board is always the captain's top priority and each decision will be taken to make you feel safe and comfortable!
