The instructor was Alberto, with whom I have already been twice. He is an instructor who is very patient and gives you confidence when you have to do things yourself.

It was the second time I did this type of journey. Our skipper was not Jorge. I missed planning to see more coves and take advantage of the days. The day we went to a single cove in Ibiza, it was wasted, because we spent more time sailing to find the cove. I would propose to focus the journey on getting to know a single island.

Excellent experience, both the skipper and the team, as well as the rest of the participants, made the day a beautiful experience. The weather was with us during the departure and the boat was very comfortable. It's a pity that the organization of the Ocean Race placed us so far away and we couldn't get closer.
