I had a fantastic day's sailing with Ivan. The Nina Lucia is a wonderful boat and really comfortable. I wanted to refresh my sailing skills and Ivan was amenable to all my requests. Thoroughly recommended.
Ivan went above and beyond our expectations, making our day sailing in the Solenta a very enjoyable experience for all 3 generations of our family group. The boat was well maintained, with all the equipment working as it should. Ivan was a friendly host and he encouraged us all to get involved in sailing the boat - my 7 year old grandson enjoyed winching in the anchor after our stop for lunch in Osborne Bay. I can definitely recommend sailing with Ivan and I hope to return for another trip soon.
A relaxing days sailing with Ivan. He responded swifty to any initial queries I had, and we all thoroughly enjoyed his warm hospitality on the boat. I would definitely recommend him.
We recently enjoyed a day out on the water with friends and were lucky to have Ivan as our skipper. His warm and friendly attitude made the experience truly special. It's evident that he's been sailing since a young age, bringing confidence and expertise to the trip. The boat itself was clean and well-maintained, making for a comfortable journey. We had such a memorable day, and we'd absolutely love to rent with Ivan again. Highly recommend!
Ivan is an exceptional skipper. I learnt from him a lot. He is patient, hospitable and makes the day a great fun day. You learn as you have fun. The boat is an absolute beauty. Well maintained, clean and sails just perfect! I recommend everyone to try and I will certainly sail with Ivan again!

I have been sailing for the last 40 years and have had numerous sailing boats; from trailer sailers like the Etap 23, to blue-water cruisers like the Vancouver 27, Rustler 31 and my current boat; which is a Swedish made Najad Aphrodite 36 called Nina Lucia. I am based in Gosport and have been a long time member of the Greenwich Yacht Club, in London. I have sailed a number of races round the Isle of Wight and also sailed extensively through the East, West and South coast of England and Adriatic Sea.
