Summary of the charter week. Mr. Giuseppe, the charter representative, welcomed us warmly and kindly allowed us an early check-in free of charge compared to the contractual time. The boat was in good/excellent condition: only a few hidden cupboards in the left/rear cabin were not perfectly clean. On Saturday, September 14th, upon leaving the port of Salerno, the impeller broke due to some debris from the port, causing the engine temperature alarm and the piece to melt. Giuseppe promptly returned to the port and restored the regular functionality of the engine. Upon return, the check-out was quick and regular, along with good advice for a future cruise in Campania. The sailing week was unfortunately characterized by three thunderstorms, the first spent in the Marina di Forio d'Ischia: a marina excessively expensive for the very basic standard services (water and electricity at the dock), but excellent in mooring assistance and at the office, yet terrible in land services (the restrooms are indecent, in a prefabricated container, only equipped with hot water). All other nights we anchored in bays. Capri is practically unreachable, both from land and sea. However, the visit to Procida was interesting. In general, the Campanian coast of the gulfs of Salerno and Naples is attractive, although nautically less varied than the Dalmatian coast or the Aegean Greek coast. Thanks to the charter for their professionalism and the well-known reliability of GlobeSailor.
