Life changing experience

Rebekka and Fred were amazing captains, willing to teach you all there is to know about sailing and allow you to help and learn. I arrived in Dublin and from the first minute felt welcome and was surrounded by the most incredible crew, which made the journey even better. The people I met, places I saw and the experience of being totally away from my usual London (rat race!) life taught me to slow down a bit and take stock of what is truly important in life. Without this journey, I wouldn't be in the great place I am now, thank you both so much! Anyone who gets the chance to sail with these two should snap it up and enjoy what they have to offer. Much love <3

Amazing sailing experience

Rebekka and Fredrik are both super capable captains, which makes Seafinn a very trustworthy boat. They teach with patience, give you responsibility according to your skills and share their wonderful home with you. This sailing trip was indescribable: swimming in the ocean, fishing, trimming the sails, watching the other ships on the ocean, stopping on some islands on the way. We would definitely do this again ? Thank you for this amazing memory, not a day has gone by without thinking about the days we spent on the boat.

perfect sailing experience

I actually wanted to stay just a few days on the boat with Fredric and Rebekka but extended for 3 weeks. Both are very warm and welcoming hosts and made me feel at home from the first moment on their beautiful boat. We really had a great time together and enjoyed sailing, snorkeling, good food and drinks. Both hosts are extremly flexible with plans and activities and have always great ideas what to do. I can highly recommend Fredrik as a captain who sails very save, has lots of experience and will tell you more about his boat. I really had an awesome time, it was even better than expected and I already miss you guys and will definitley come back :)

Super geweldige ervaring

Een meer dan geweldige ervaring, onze reis om Saint Vincent and the Grenadines. Fredrik is een uitstekende kapitein, geweldige uitleg, deelt kennis en vaardigheden op een fijne manier, houdt rekening met alle veiligheids voorschriften, openhartig, fijn gezelschap, overleg, respecteert andere, super persoonlijkheid. Gelijk zo Rebekka zijn vriendin. Doen alles om een onvergetelijke tijd te hebben. Hartelijk dank lieve vrienden.
