About me
Hello! I am Andrea, the commander of Mina Vagante 2. I am 39 years old, but at 4 I was already a small sailor. I love sailing and the sea, I like to live it with respect for others and for Nature. Together with my partner Alice I will take you to discover the Pontine Islands, a true paradise just 30 miles from the port of Neptune.
I speak Italian (native), English (medium)
Nautical experience
I have been sailing since I was little, first on the family Fly Junior and then on cabin cruisers, on which I started racing around the age of 20.
At 30 I decided to take the plunge and bought my first sailing boat in partnership with a friend: a glorious Rondò 40 from the Biasi shipyard. A fast and very seaworthy boat, but not very suitable for comfortable cruising.
For this reason, in 2018, I took another step forward and, together with my partner Alice, I purchased Mina Vagante 2: an Oceanis 411 Clipper with decidedly more generous spaces and a fourth cabin!
Sharing my passion for the sea with the guests on board made me happy right away and so I made it my job in all respects: in 2019 Mina Vagante 2 obtained the UK commercial flag, I obtained the Yachtmaster Offshore certificate and opened my own sole proprietorship.
In my free time I continue to do regattas and in the summer season I sail to the islands of the Tyrrhenian Sea, primarily the Pontine Islands.
