What I like to do

My experience

I have been cruising as a sailor, as a second and as a captain since 1989 with boats of all types from 38 to 100 feet, making charters and cruises with private individuals throughout the Mediterranean, I have particular knowledge of the Tuscan archipelago, Corsica, northern Sardinia, Pontine, Aeolian Islands and Sicily, Ionian Greece and Aegean.

I have made transfers to and from the Caribbean for private boats.

In the last 10 years, in addition to collaborating as an instructor with a well-known sailing school in Milan and racing in the classic circuits and in the Italian and Tuscan championships, I have been in command of a 72-foot Sangermani from 1963 and a swan 60r from 1998 and a 75-foot one-off from 2012. I have experience for regattas and transfers on 80 and 100 wallys.

I currently sail on my boat a sintesi 45, equipped to sail both in light and more important winds without neglecting the comfort on board.
