Joao was a fun sailing companion for the day. Competent, accommodating, and made the whole thing an excellent experience for all involved, including the 3 kids we had in tow. Totally recommended if you're looking in Lisbon!
Joao e Carlos, no words to describe the quality of your service, kindness and friendship. The experience of a sailboat is always amazing, mainly for sea lovers, but you rise the experience to other level. No doubt will meet you again. Thanks for everything, and see you soon!
