MIXit Sailing Holidays in GREECE

Hello Philip, We spent one week on this Sun Odyssey 37, a very well equipped and clean yacht. All the family enjoy sailing from Volos to the Sporades with nice mooring recommendations from Kostas. Taking a reef in the mainsail is easy from the rear side and a “patented” management system for the anchor chain make the life easier. Everything works well and we had no trouble at all. Rental contract and follow up run smoothly with Philip. I can only recommend this yacht and company! Kind regards, Gerald

Please find enclosed some pictures of our great sailing trip. Best regards, Filip & Lieve

Firstly I would like to thank Phil for all his help in arranging the perfect yacht for our holiday with 2 young children. We had asked for various out of the box arrangements to be made and these were all taken care of. We arrived at our meeting point The Fresh Cafe in Skiathos and were greeted by the base manager Lambros , for which nothing was to much trouble even giving us enough sheets and towels for a month at sea. The yacht was perfectly equipped and had so many extras that we were taken aback. it even had a microwave. We had a wonderful time sailing around the Sporades and took the advice from Lambros as to where to go . Many memorable moments but waking up surrounded by Giant fishing vessels did make for an interesting exit. Thanks again to Phil and Lambros and once again I would like to thank Lambros for the extra hours given on board whilst waiting for our flight.

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.
