We had an amazing time with Christian and his sailboat! We celebrated my wife's birthday aboard his sailboat with 6 of our closest friends and I do not regret it. Christian was easy to communicate with and incredibly flexible. Because its a sailboat we had to be a bit flexible with our exact experience ensuring weather and waves were cooperative but in the end, we were able to both enjoy a sail on the open ocean and cruise around the harbor all while enjoying our dinner and drink we brought with us aboard. Christian went above and beyond our expectations and I'd have no hesitations recommending him, his vessel and/or booking with him again in the near future!

A perfect day with friends on the water for my birthday. Our Captain was calm and patient. He handled the sailboat whilst climbing over us flawlessly. Also, the sail boat is beautiful and has character. I will definitely book with him again if I get back on the water.

A very experienced and competent owner/captain. He was very accommodating in letting us actively participate in the operation of the boat, even in the very windy conditions we experienced. A beautiful and _fast_ boat that is for those who really want to sail! This is _not_ a floating condo!

We wound up with Christian as Marina Del Rey's Catalina 22 concessioner is closed on Mondays. Lucky for us. Christian's trans-ocean sailing experience is apparent from the earliest moments of his ship handling, and not that he's trying to broadcast. The price point was excellent. He took the initiative to take pictures and video that he then shared with us. This native Italian, former attorney, current film producer/director spins a modest, fascinating story in his conversation when you draw him out. You would think someone with that background would consume all the oxygen. Post-sail, he followed us all the way to our vehicle in the parking lot. You can read a lot into that. My older sister was quite smitten with him.

We had the best time with Christian on his lovely boat! Four adults, three kids, perfect weather! We sailed up the coast, jumped into the water and had an all around incredible day on the water. Thank you so much!

Larger groups calculate an average of $100 per person depending on the total time and time of the day. Same with more hours. if you are interested in just cruising in the marina rather than sailing I can do $100hour with a minimum of 2 hours depending on the time of the day. Saiing is minimum 3 hours. Here is some examples. Price varies. 3 hours for 2 people $400 total (includes fees). 3 hours for 5 people $600/700. 4 hours for 5 people $800. For families with children please ask. Full day is 6 hours Pets must be approved before booking. Captain can decide at any time to cancel sailing trip due to unsafe wind or sea conditions. Thanks and safe winds.
