Very interesting trip on a well-maintained ship with a very experienced crew. A bit more wind (and thus more time under sail) would have been nice. The Italian bureaucracy also bothered us a bit, and it almost kept us stuck in Amalfi for 24 hours. The food was typical Italian cuisine. The weather was a bit chilly in the evening, but some still took their swimming laps around the ship. The mood on board was excellent.

A truly special sailing trip on a cool ship with amazing people. The weather was actually a bit too nice for sailing, and unfortunately, we had a bit too little wind. The route — Kühlungsborn, Fehmarn, Wismar, Grömitz, and Travemünde — was very well chosen. Everyone on board was super easygoing. Definitely makes you want to do it again. Thanks! 😎😁👍

A somewhat different experience compared to my previous charters.

This ship can hold its own alongside Elegant, Engelina (formerly Jan Huygen), and all the other vessels I’ve been a guest on!

Highly recommended. 😉

This wasn’t my first trip on a traditional sailing ship. However, this journey will always stay in my memory. Not only the crew, but also the catering deserves a solid A+. It’s certainly not something to be taken for granted how lovingly everything was prepared by our cook, Claudia. At this point, a big compliment also goes out to the other fellow travelers—for the understanding and consideration shown to and with one another. For me, it’s clear: if my health allows it, I will join the Elegant again on the transfer voyage from the Baltic Sea back to Harlingen.Until then—may you always have a hand’s breadth of water under the keel!Best regards,Eckhard
