Dear Shipmates

Introduction

I look for real friends to share a relaxed sailing. No pressure about schedule and SAFETY FIRST. We will share all activities on board: sailing, watching, cleaning, cooking. If you are ready for this than you are very wellcome.
IMPROVEMENT in 2024: engine totally refurbished, asymmetric spi with roller, foldable dinghy and outboard, new battery.
PLAN for summer 2024 : My plan is to start sailing on 15th july around Cefalonia / Ithaki / Zakinthos and then sail to Sicily around 20th August. In Sicily I will sail until October and will stop some time in Catania where is my home.
Also Catania has an international airport with a lot of flights to any destination. Depending on the weather I could sail also during November / December, some time we had very good meteo and warm temperature during Christmas.
You can join me along the route by ferry or fly.
Maximum 3 sailors + me on board.
No problem if you are a beginner (in a few days you will be able to help me) but I need people with a HIGH FLEXIBILITY about living aboard.
I will DO MY BEST to match flights and dates of every sailor.
Every night we will do a balance of the costs and compensate among the participants to avoid any problem at the end.
I am very easy going and friendly but remember: SAFETY FIRST and the captain decides about safety i.e. use of engine, place and time to stop and mooring.
Romance? no thank you, Sincerely I do not need, male or female both very welcome.
You should fly to Kefalonia or Zakintos in May 2024 but you can join me later along the route

To potential crew members:
IMPROVEMENT in 2024: engine totally refurbished, asymmetric spi with roller, foldable dinghy very easy to use, new batteries for engine and service.
If you LOOK for a high-class holiday and a pristine boat my vessel is not for you.
You will find here a sustainable and real sailing i.e. limited use of engine, anchoring as much as possible, hot water if sunny day, fresh fish if we are lucky about fishing.
Water tank with 500 liters fresh water. DINGY ready to use with 5hp outboard.
My passions: cooking high quality food, rock, blues, jazz. Good movies Science , physics, politic (real politic no propaganda)

What is expected of the crew

clean & tidyeasy-goingfit & healthygood listenertravel light (little luggage)open mindedsense of humorcan pay own expensesdon't mind cleaningcan follow orders

READ CAREFULLY PLEASE : IF you think that we can become real friends then you are super wellcome.
I do not look for a customer , please do not consider this as a charter boat to get 1 week holiday at a cheap price; I pretend to sail with friends to share cost and any activity aboard.
