Sailboat Del Pardo Grand Soleil 46 (14m, Retrofitted 2022) 14m
Delfina is a 46-foot vessel, designed by A. Jezequel, built in 1991 by Cantieri del Pardo and refitted in 2022. We present our trips under the name "sailing Delfina": we offer cruises in the Ligurian Sea and the Northern Tyrrhenian Sea, reaching destinations such as Porto Venere, the French Riviera, Corsica, and the island of Elba. A two-day cruise can take us to nearby destinations, such as the Portofino promontory, while a multi-day cruise can take us to the Cinque Terre and Porto Venere, or to Savona and Capo Noli, and beyond, depending on your time availability. Although Delfina is certified as a Class A vessel with a crew of 10 on board, since we prefer to travel more comfortably, we accommodate a maximum of four guests, in addition to the two of us who live on board. We have reserved the two aft cabins for guests, one with a double bed and one with a bunk bed, each with its own bathroom (equipped with an electric toilet and hot/cold shower). We occupy the forward cabin, with its own bathroom and toilet. We have a large dinette where you can enjoy meals or relax and chat while moored or at anchor. Our ideal guests are those who love being at sea, whether for a nice ride with the right wind conditions, or to be gently carried away when the sea offers it. We enjoy traveling at sea, respecting the rhythms the sea dictates, and we will propose a plan suited to the weather conditions and the days you have available, coordinating our cruise destination and travel arrangements. We're moored in the heart of Genoa's historic center, so Delfina is a great base for those who want to explore Genoa. The Aquarium is 150 meters away, and the entire historic center is within easy walking distance. If you prefer, you can sleep on board the boat the night before your arrival (for an additional fee).

Overall rating
I spent an amazing week end with marialberto and laura they are very knowledgeable of the region and extremly nice and welcoming. we had great meals on board and even greater conversation. get ready for homemade traditional italian cuisine We were able to sail the boat almost the entire time and it sails very well under light to medium wind. highly recommend booking with them
Alberto and Laura are really really great host and we are really thankful to have met such 2 great persons. We are family with 2 children (10 & 13y.o) sailing for the 2nd time with click n boat, and experiencing our 1st experience in foreign language… and what an experience ! Truly great and I bless Laura and Alberto to be such great persons. Pedagogy, goodwill, patience, warm welcome, real kindness… Out of the boat that is in excellent condition and the competences of Albert that inspire trust and safety… the greatest thing is that you arrive as a stranger to the boat and you quit them at the end like friends/family member thanks to their genuine kindness !!!!

All was very good , our first experience was perfect. Thanks to all the team.
Great hosts ! We had a great week with Alberto and Laura that did their best to welcome us and show us the Ligurian coast, I also appreciate a lot the possibility to take the steer with the technical support of Alberto ! We had fun and we definitely recommend the Delfina 😉
We were the first 'guests' of Alberto and Laura and as the voyage drew nearer we were able to benefit from professional guidance to prepare for this adventure in the best possible way! We travelled as a group of 4, 2 adults and 2 children (11 and 13), with little sailing experience. The programme had been agreed together, but the weather forced us to adapt it at the last minute (on the day of departure). Thanks to the kindness, experience and hospitality of our hosts, we spent 5 extraordinary days: delicious meals, interesting exchanges and discussions, moments of relaxation, explanations about sailing, etc. We have nothing to complain about, and we're leaving with lots of images and memories!
Alberto and Laura are two welcoming and interesting people, they made us feel at home; the experience on board their boat is pleasant and relaxing, whether it is sailing or spending a day diving and swimming. To be repeated and absolutely recommended
We had a great day. Roberto and Laura were very friendly and let us enjoy the whole day. Our two daughters (5 and 7) also loved it, especially swimming and jumping from the boat into the water. Thank you again!!

Sailing occasionally on charter boats since 20+ years, I am now a boat owner and definitely a sail-person. After a lifelong career in the aerospace & defence industry travelling the world for business, I now settled in my boat and enjoy the closeness to the sea and the sea-life. Sailing gives me that feeling of belonging, as you have to be in tune with the sea and the wind, and the occasional encounter with sea life completes the circle of existence. Delfina is just perfect for this: a solid built, classic hull, well suited to all the weather can throw at her, and yet her interiors are elegant and comfortable. I am retired, have four grandchildren, do not fish, and like scuba diving.
