Trustworthy, professional Company, staff are friendly and helpful, excellent instructors.

Cara

Excellent skipper. He assessed our abilities up front and let us do as much of the sailing as we felt comfortable with, without appearing to over control us in any way, even when conditions got quite demanding. The skipper was very entertaining throughout the weekend and he had many interesting sailing tips to give us. The yacht was very comfortable and there were plenty of provisions to cover the whole journey.

This was a five star trip!
