Owner of S/Y “ I Neverland” Solaris 50  (Greece)

I spend 7 weeks with Pierre this past summer, on my brand new yacht “ I Neverland” ( Solaris 50) .

During this time I had on board different group of friends and family, and we sailed from Sardinia to Corsica to the French and Italian Riviera and from there on, Pierre and myself transfer the yacht to Greece, where she will be stationed.

Although Pierre is an easy going person and our relation was never very strict, he exhibited professionalism and despite being a pleasant company, he was very discreet when needed.

Pierre is a very energetic person, an experienced sailor and he can handle the yacht under any circumstances in a expert manner. He loves his job and he took thorough care of my yacht.

Our time together was very pleasant, there was never a conflict, and all my guests were very fond of him. When our collaboration came to an end I was regretful parting with him.

I hope we will have the opportunity to sail together again in the future.

In summary... we would happily do it again with “Open Mind Yachting.”

Last summer, we went on a three-week trip to Corsica and Sardinia aboard a Dehler 46. Even though we are experienced sailors, choosing to go with a professional skipper like Pierre offers many advantages: increased safety in bad weather, the selection of good anchorages, and knowledge of the sites, as well as ongoing learning to improve our maneuvering and navigation skills. Pierre was very attentive to our expectations, very available to guide us through maneuvers, and did not hesitate to offer advice on improving our port entry and anchoring practices. His discretion, kindness, and calm confidence made this trip unforgettable.
