Testimonials

The positive experience started with the travel arrangements, Melody helped us coordinate and guided us though not only the Greek language arrangements but the Czech side as well. The on-board instructor was OUTSTANDING, he stressed safety and fun, he kindled a love of sailing in my daughter and helped her earn her competent crew certificate and my 8 year old son was taught much more than I would have thought possible and he too now has a love of sailing and fascination with boats.

Mike Wilson

The instructor’s ability to communicate information in both calm sailing conditions and critical information in time-critical conditions is exceptional. The added history discussions and general conversation was a pleasure. I will return.

Keith Carroll

Very impressed with instruction given and learnt a huge amount. At the same time, it was very enjoyable – being with 2 other boats was great fun. It was great!
