Thank you for your thoughtful feedback and for your kind words about the skipper and host—we’re so pleased you enjoyed your trip overall. We completely understand that you would have liked more sailing. Unfortunately, we can’t control the wind, and during your week it typically didn’t pick up until around 3:00 pm, so we sailed whenever conditions allowed. On some days we also had to arrive at marinas at specific times to secure a berth. Our trips are designed as sailing holidays rather than sailing courses, so we aim to balance sailing with swimming, relaxing, and giving guests time to enjoy each destination. As everyone on board has different expectations, we try to create an itinerary that offers something for everyone. We’re delighted you enjoyed the days we were able to sail, and we hope to welcome you on one of our more adventurous itineraries in the future, where longer passages and more sailing are often possible. Warm regards Jane, Maria and the team.
