I think that is the necessity, not only for adventure, but also for physical and moral cleansing, that drives the solitary sailor towards other shores, where his body and his spirit, freed from contact with earthly servitude, can find their essence and their purity, among the natural elements that the ancients had deified. Wind, sun and sea, trinity of the god of sailors
Bernard Moitessier – Un vagabondo dei mari del sud
Aqualung Sailing offers sailing cruises all around Mediterranean See Our project was born from the awareness and the call, matured with time, to have to leave, to sail towards new horizons. Rediscover the simplicity and purity of the elements, the wind that blows the sails, the sound of the sea on the hull, the sun and moon that mark our time and the infinite facets of nature that we can see only if we decide to experience them in first person and from a new point of view. Aqualung Sailing Aqualung Sailing for us is not “just” a boat or a job, it is a laboratory that allows us to share this research with others, through various activities and experiences, in the hope of being able to change, in part or completely, someone’s point of view and through them to continue to change ours.
captain and adventurer, he discovered that his vocation is sailing and living the sea.
I started sailing at the age of 13, in Cavo (Elba Island) attending for several summers the sailing school “Utopia”, first on dinghies and then on cabin cruisers. Over the years I have participated in numerous regattas and worked on boats of various sizes. In 2016 I became owner for the first time of a Jeanneau Folie Douce , “Nuvola”, together we sailed a lot and I learned what it means to be the captain, to do the thousand maintenance jobs that a boat requires and to cope with unexpected events that can happen. The time spent on the boat was never enough, just my vacations or days off: i always wanted more! And so, little by little, the idea of making it a job and a lifestyle took shape.
photographer and adventurer, pristine nature and freedom lover
I’m a photographer and adventurer, I have deeply explored many different territories and cultures. Throughout my life I have had the opportunity to expand my skills in many different working territories, such as art, photography, tourism, advertising and catering. I got to know the world of the sea and sailing through Edoardo and I felt the vastness and complexity of emotions that come into play, such as peace, freedom, but also hard work, cooperation and mutual respect.
Aqualung is aGib Sea 442 with sloop sail rig and designed by Michel Joubert and Bernard Nivelt (more than 25,000 boats were born from their drawings), both great sailors they gave life to boats that reflected their spirits and experience: units designed to sail for a long time and able to deal with the most difficult conditions.
Internally it is divided into four cabins, two doubles in the stern and two with bunk beds in the bow. It has three bathrooms, two with toilet and one with a comfortable shower cabin. Solar panels and wind blade make us self-sufficient for electricity. It has 600 lt of water and a purification and sterilization plant (so we don’t have to buy plastic bottles). The kitchen has two burners, oven and two refrigerators. The dinette is comfortable and at the table you can eat comfortably in 10 people. The real teak interior has the warmth and feel of a cozy, homey environment. Under each bed and sofa, as well as in the cockpit, there are large lockers, in addition to the sail locker for an almost unlimited storage space. The Yanmar engine, among the best in the industry, was installed new in 2016.
