MIXit Sailing Holidays in GREECE

Due to Covid we had to postpone our trip several times. Philip from Mixit was always very helpful in arranging everything and giving advice for our extra insurance. In Volos we were warmly welcomed by Ria and Demitris. All formalities were correctly and pleasantly arranged. The yacht was in perfect order. The Meltimi forced us to anchor for 2 days in the small harbor of Kottes, not the best place to stay with the wind blowing right into the harbour. Fortunately the yacht was in good order and we had 100 meters of anchor chain to insure ourselves against the strong wind. The other yachts were less happy with their shorter anchor chains. Thanks to the solar panel, we also had no problems with the energy on board so that we could run the fridge. The days we sailed were great, the boat is very stable and little wind was needed to be able to sail at 5 knots. We hope to come back to sail to the Sporades in better conditions and hope we will be available to sail her again.

Thanks for the note. We had a great time again this year although we had to deal with less than ideal waters (lots of jellyfish this year :( ) Planning to take a trip in the Ionian next year. I'll ping you if we return to the sporades the following year.

Hi Phil All went well, we were very lucky and had very few issues getting there and staying in Volos before sailing and the boat was perfect for us, It also sailed well and we had some lovely weather both for sailing and relaxing. Thanks for your help Richard

Hi Phil Two weeks again out of Volos, It's been about eight years since we were last here. Everything went well and the boat was fantastic and well looked after. We met George and the hand over was very straight forward, as was handing it back after our trip. George obviously loves the boat, it was in fantastic condition. We hope to sail again in the Sporades and will give you a call sometime in the near future. Thanks
