The English Flotilla Guidance
Of course, a successful sailing holiday depends on the weather, the sun, the sea and the flotilla guidance. In addition to conviviality, safety is of course very important during the sailing holiday. During the Sicilian flotilla, professional English-speaking guidance is available on the mothership who are always ready for mooring and anchoring. These flotilla leaders may also be local residents, but will always have good English language skills. In addition, they plot the route (with input from the participants) and monitor the weather for everyone. Of course, they enjoy it a lot themselves and are always looking forward to giving you a great experience in Italy as well.
