Miaplacidus
That's Miaplacidus ketch, 20mt.(67foot). 4 cabins per 8 guests plus me and the crew (total 2/3 crew) Hi All!
SICILY * AMALFI COAST * IBIZA & FORMENTERA * CAPRI ISLAND * SARDINIIA
I have been traveling to all of these places for years.
This is the first time I write a Blog and I am sorry if my english is a little disaster! I can speak better (as french, spanish.. and of course .. Italian).
I have been sailing since I was 8 years old. I won the International European event coming in 8th place out of 350 sailors when I was 12 years old. Sailing and nature are truly my life passions. I own a sailboat called Miaplacidus that I travel with all year.
The experience of travel in several countries and different culture trough a sailboat can be very interesting for anyone who never did it. I sail from from when I was born (on my father sailboat) and I do charter from 1980 so I have a wide esxperience about sailing in Mediterranean Sea and more. I know all the best spot in Sicily, Capri area, Sardinia, Corse, Ibiza, Formentera, Mallorca and Minorca.
My longest travel was from Palermo to Caribbeans, me and my friends spent almost 45 days
In Ibiza with guests
That was last year with one of the several group of friends coming for about one week.. in this great trip, stopping in Spain, Africa, Canary Islands and then sailing straight for 17 days to the warm wheater.
Now I am in Sicily, near Palermo preparing my sailboat Miaplacidus for summer 2011.
Miaplacidus stands at a colossal 20 meters (67 foot). And it is a little house with everething onboard for a luxury but simple life in the nature.
My plan for the 2011 season is first to navigate around all the AEOLIAN ISLANDS, maybe also to AEGADIAN ISLANDS (passing from USTICA and the NORTH COAT OF SICILY). I have been there many times and I allways love to go there, a paradise of 7 little islands each one different from the other.
After Sicily my plan is to sail to CAPRI ISLAND. In Napoli aerea i will sail along the AMALFI COAST including POSITANO, then down to the south coast: THE CILENTO COAST. Which is out of the main tourism but very interesting for ancient village, crystal water spots and lovely local cuisine.
Then will be early July and I think to sail to SARDINIIA and CORSE, right in the midlle "Bocche di Bonifacio" the straight between Sardinia and Corse. There are
Miaplacidus Master cabin
This is the bigger cabin, the suite! many many islands and tiny rocks with a simply transparent water and white sands. The thing I like more are the rocks, so round that seems Soft!
After having spent a while in this area I will sail to the BALEARIC ISLANDS.. reaching first MINORCA, then MALLORCA and Finally IBIZA & FORMENTERA.
After that i don't know, I will think about.. any suggestion is welcome!
