Superb experience from start to finish. I can’t praise Massimo and his friend Ivan highly enough for the way that they looked after us today. Undoubtedly one of my most memorable days on the water. The boat herself is a good compromise for comfort over speed. We were beating into 25 knots of wind towing a heavy tender yet made nearly 8 knots and had supreme comfort. Massimo made us a great lunch and they were genuinely interested in us as people. We spent a great day on the Ionian Sea with views of Etna and the coast, and got to sail a lovely yacht. Thank you again Massimo and Ivan

Massimo and Silvia were the perfect captain/crew. They weee gracious, good-humored, fed us well, handled us and the boat beautifully, were charming yet serious about the boating. We for a few swims in the gorgeous waters north of Catania. They for us back safely and we were full of smiles!

Massimo and crew gave us the best day ever! He had great communication in the weeks before, replying very quickly. We requested to stop off for lunch and he found us a lovely restaurant and also ensured we had a good route to maximise our time on the boat. He accommodated all of our needs perfectly and let all 12 of us have a lot of fun. A day to remember! His English was great too. Thanks Massimo see you next time

The best experience we have had on a boat day so far. Me and my partner go on day trips all the time but this was by far the best we have been too. The service was amazing the boat is beautiful, clean and had lots of equipment for us to enjoy . Massimo and Silvia were great and entertained us throughout the trip. WE LOVED IT!!!

Massimo and Sylvia were wonderful hosts for our group! They were very accommodating, provided information about the area and Catania, and were able to show us some beautiful areas along the coast. We loved having the option to snorkel and paddleboard. The food provided was also delicious. Thanks for such a great time! Highly recommend.

Mixed review. Once we got settled in the bay, it was nice and relaxing. But, we started an hour late because the boat arrived into port later than expected and the engine on the tender boat transporting us from shore to the boat got flooded and stopped working. In the beginning we sailed directly into rough waters for awhile then had to stop and turn around because they were too rough. Every few seconds our drinks and snacks flew off the tables due to the waves. I would have anticipated that they could tell that we shouldn’t have gone that way. Tried to distract ourselves but the music and Bluetooth was not working. We made it into a bay and stayed there the rest of the time. Just not what we expected.

We had a wonderful day of sailing, swimming and enjoying the day in salty kiss. The sipper and his wife were wonderful and very knowledgeable about the area and about sailing. They were amazing hosts sharing drinks and a beautiful lunch with us. They also gave us a great education about the area and about Mount Etna which we saw clearly while saying past Catania.
