This was one of the highlights of our holiday. Mark & Jimmy treated us like friends. We were fortunate enough to be the only booking for the morning and were able to enjoy a hands on experience that involved assisting the crew and steering the yacht. My girlfriend and I have had limited sailing experience so it was interesting to learn various aspects of it. Mark and Jimmy were extremely knowledgable in sailing and of the local area. We were treated to scones and a cheese platter and felt very comfortable while on board the yacht. I couldn't recommend this experience more highly and I extend huge thanks to the crew for their hospitality.Beautiful boat. Knowledgeable skipper (Mark)who didn't mind sharing some sailing knowledge with me and got to watch the spinnaker set up. Shout out to Jimmies freshly baked scones.
