    I couldn't have chosen a captain or a better voyage. Ignacio is a great professional who transmits his passion and knowledge of the sea. I've learned a lot about sailing and about myself. The sailboat is very comfortable and everything is in perfect condition. It has been a wonderful experience and without a doubt, I will repeat

    An unforgettable experience! The skipper Ignacio, a born leader with a high level of experience in navigation, with an ability to expose inductive material in an effective and easy to understand way. The sailing yacht is a tank in the sea, with a lot of comfort. It far exceeded my expectations.

    Nostalgia for the silver reflections on his wall when the water was cut off while dancing to the infinite murmur of the waves.
    Bedouin of the sea in the star-studded night and guided by the enchantment of his mantle, he sails hanging from the sky.
    The sails come out and close to the soul, the salty bodies fly at dawn.
