This experience, in a nutshell

Also this year our association is pleased to invite you on board for a special weekend that will include participation in the 7th Edition of the "Veleggiata dei muscoli" in Fezzano di Portovenere (SP), the event that kicks off the summer season in the Gulf.


It is a nice initiative in which many sailboats participate every year. It is not a regatta, but a friendly, non-competitive sailing in which we will participate for fun, guests on board are not required any particular experience or skills, only the desire to have fun together.


At the end of the sailing, the award ceremony is held (with prizes drawn at random because there is no ranking). Followed by the free musculate: the fish farmers of Fezzano offer mussels marinara to all participants. In the village there is also a party with a live concert under the pine forest with lots of music and dancing. It is a pleasant opportunity to party, be together and compare yourself with other crews.


By registering for this event, you can enjoy a beautiful weekend full of fun, trying to compete with the other boats on Saturday and enjoy well-deserved relaxation on board throughout Sunday.


Living on board is not just sailing, with us life on board is relaxed and fun, you make new friends and together you collaborate in the management of the boat.


We are an amateur sports association, our aim is to make you discover the art of sailing, learn to sail while having fun, always respecting our sea.

The activities of our association are guided by the ethical values that are the basis of our daily actions: we sail according to the principles of respect for the environment and responsibility towards nature, our main fuel is the wind and our energy is solar.

To embark with us it will be necessary to become a member of the association and present a medical certificate for non-competitive sporting activity.


On board we will separate waste collection and we will not use disposable tableware.

Magnificent weekend of sailing on the island of Elba

07/18/2024

Debora P.

Esperienza positiva con alcune pecche. Infatti questa associazione sportiva dilettantistica promuove la condivisione all'unisono della vita in barca con tutti i componenti. In realtà lo stesso skipper priva gli ospiti di una doccia con acqua dolce, mentre se la gode per sé stesso, il concetto della condivisione viene meno. Esperienza positiva per mare, tragitto e pulizia. Negativo per atteggiamento dello skipper in quanto poco accogliente e disponibile rispetto alle esigenze e ai bisogni degli ospiti, ogni richiesta era un piccolo problema, dallo sbarcare con il tender in porto alla doccia di acqua dolce negata e non ultimo il costante odore di pipa sia all'interno che all'esterno della barca.

Shooting Star Cruise in Corsica with return at night

Alessandro è uno skipper gentile sotto la scorza del marinaio duro e scontroso. Attento alle esigenze di tutti, sa iniziare i membri dell’equipaggio ai valori autentici ed essenziali del mare, condividendo le sue competenze e aprendo, qualche volta gelosamente, la sua barca “[hidden]” a chi, come me, desiderava abbandonarsi alla brezza del vento.

Isola del Giglio and Isola d'Elba: the medieval village and the frivolous

Alessandro è una persona squisita oltre che molto competente e disponibile. Ci ha fatto sentire sempre sicuri in ogni situazione, anche in quelle dove il meteo non è stato dei migliori. Crociera rilassante e divertente, ottima musica, peccato per il poco vento. Toccherà tornare! Esperienza indubbiamente consigliata.

Relaxing weekend on the Island of Elba

Alessandro è uno skipper disponibile e professionale, profondo conoscitore e amante del mare e della vela. Trasmette agli ospiti la propria passione raccontando le sue esperienze di vita legate al mare. Piacevole week end. Esperienza consigliata. Solo un po' di elasticità in più per il consumo dell'acqua per la doccia di fine giornata.
