What is the charm of sailing?
Foreign films have created a misconception among many people about yachting. For many, a yacht is a very expensive, luxurious and unattainable thing. In reality, things are not like that. A yacht vacation, whether it is a regular short trip or a two-week cruise, is quite affordable. Similarly, vacations to Turkey, Egypt or other familiar countries could be called expensive. A yacht is an opportunity to breathe in the air of freedom, feel one with nature and enjoy the moment as a happy sailor. Water has a good effect on a person’s mental health, it calms and relaxes. A yacht trip allows us to see sights from a new angle.
