| My name is Vittorio, I am 53, married and have two daughters. Driven by a profound passion for sailing, I started managing a sailing community after I took skippering as my hobby. Together we sail & trek exploring the beautiful Tuscan islands, the Pontine islands and the Campanian Archipelago in winter, while we sail & swim around them in summer. Organizing sail trips tailored for the specific needs of different crews has become my main activity: I know how to best spend time on the water, from cruise planning to boat renting, sailing and docking in Tyrrenian Sea ports and bays. | |
