Richard Boorman
a year agoJust completed combined Competent Crew and Day Skipper course with instructor Carl and loved it. I had zero sailing experience coming into this and was apprehensive. Carl was demanding and patient in equal amounts - the course was intense and tiring but great fun and taught me so much. Spectacular scenery, lovely yacht and an unforgettable time.

8 months agoExcellent sailing school. Great instructor with a good sense of humor and lots of patience. The gulf of Volos is an excellent location to learn sailing. Highly recommended!
Alex Overton
a year agoCarl is an extremely skilled, fun and thorough instructor. 'Its not a holiday', but you will come away from the experience having seen some great locations and gained as much knowledge as you can absorb. Liz's cooking is top notch and also caters for those with dietary needs. Can recommend this sailing school with no hesitation.

2 years agoA fantastic week completing my Day Skipper course. Carl provides excellent instruction on a wonderful boat (with your own cabin, no sharing with stranger). Liz provides some delicious food. Great value for money, can't recommend enough!
