I loved the boat, our captain, the itinerary, and our fellow guests.

I've done a lot of sailing trips with G but this one still has kinks to work out compared to the other sailing trips I've done. Issues with meeting points, info in the itinerary being misleading or incorrect or simply not updated when a season has been avoiding an area totally, the route is super ambitious in the itinerary and not realistic for the coast line for an essentially 7-8 day trip. it's a long journey so rejigging the itinerary to be more realistic would be helpful. Stopping in some places was just not feasible due to distances needed to be achieved vs weather. See further notes at end of surgery.
