    Private Sailing Cruise in El Nido

    Sylvain provided us with a perfect vacation experience. We relaxed, sailed, snorkeled, swam, ate well and got to see the most beautiful islands without the crowds. Sylvain took us to the remote less traveled and stunning islands. We spent 2 nights, but I understand he does day trips too. We wished it wouldn’t end, he was super flexible in getting us to a tattoo appointment the second night on tim. He is chill, accommodating and interesting but most importantly a very competent sailor. When back in El Nido we will return to do it again with him. Alan & Albert NYC

    We joined Alan and Maria with our one-year-old baby. They were so accommodating and really made us feel comfortable. Maria (the boat) is beautiful and so expertly piloted by Alan. I wish we could have stayed with them forever. Thanks again. Sam, Cat & Jack

    Beneteau Oceanis 48 in Coron, Palawan

    Great luxury island hopping, but not a sailing charter. The boat was very well set up and equipped (although some important equipment didn't work properly). The crew were friendly and helpful and cooked great Filipino meals for us. They knew all the local tourist spots and went out of their way to try and help us enjoy them. But they did not know how to sail. I blame the owner not the crew for this, but if you are looking for a sailing charter, whether to learn to sail (big mistake with crew that don't know how) or you are as ailor (you will be very frustrated) this is probably the wrong boat for you. Despite my request for a charter oriented to sailing, the crew was uncomfortable sailing in less than 10 knots or more than 15, and only on a reach. They said the boat wouldn't perform in less than 10 knots. Admittedly the sails were in terrible shape, but properly trimmed the boat would absolutely be capable of sailing in anything over 6 knots. They were afraid to short tack and couldn't conceive of sailing off the mooring even in ideal conditions and wind headings. None of this may matter to you, but you should know that this is essentially a power boat charter where you might be lucky to put up the sails for one or two brief periods. Also, the boat seems to have a serious problem with its electrical system. I don't know if it's insufficient or if the batteries are old, but despite 4-6 hours a day of motoring PLUS 4-6 hours a day of running the generator the crew said there wasn't enough power to run the WiFi (Starlink) when the generator was off. They were even concerned about running my 19 watt mini CPAP at night. I have owned multiple boats between 34 and 48 feet and crossed several ceans and I have never seen this sort of issue with an electrical system. It shouldn't exist on a fancy charter boat. (Also the GPS/Chartplotter was going on and off and the crew weren't confident navigating close to shore without it). If you just want to be on a sailboat but don't care at all about sailing this all may not matter to you. But as I stated at the beginning, this is not an opportunity to learn how to sail, nor is it an opportunity to do serious sailing (what I was hoping for). It is a chance to go to the tourist spots (sometimes at hours when others aren't there) with local guides and an excellent RIB.

    We had an absolutely PERFECT trip. 4days/3 nights sailing in Philippines.We could not have imagined anything better. Captain Alan was amazing. He was professional, made us feel safe. He was flexible and adjusted itinerary based on our requests. We did everything on our list and more. He made extra efforts to make sure we were having a great time and to get us to destinations so we could enjoy! Thank you Alan for memorable experience!

    We had an astonishing time sailing with Alan in his spectacular boat. A very caring and friendly captain, he made us feel safe, welcome and at home. His boat, Maria is impressive! It had everything we needed for a comfortable and enjoyable sailing experience. We would definitely sail with him again in a heartbeat!

    Our family of 3 had a great overnight sailing adventure with Alan and Maria. They were awesome hosts and we learnt a lot from both of them about sailing and boat life. Highly recommended for adventurous and laid back group of friends, couples and families who are looking for a fun and chilled (weather permitting!) time on a catamaran.
