Giugi is a 2022 Oceanis 30.1 sailboat based at Marina Portorosa in Furnari, Sicily—your gateway to the Tyrrhenian Sea's most enchanting waters. This nimble 9.5-metre vessel is purpose-built for small groups and families seeking an intimate sailing experience without compromising on comfort or capability. With two well-appointed cabins sleeping up to six guests and a single head, Giugi strikes the balance between sociability and privacy that makes for harmonious week-long voyages.

From your home port, a week aboard opens onto crystalline anchorages and whitewashed villages that cling to dramatic coastlines. The Aeolian Islands lie within easy reach—Lipari's pumice beaches, Stromboli's volcanic drama, and Panarea's impossibly picturesque harbour all beckon. The boat's responsive 21 HP engine and thoughtfully designed lazy jacks system for sail handling mean you'll spend less time wrestling with gear and more time absorbing the rhythm of Mediterranean sailing. Whether you're an experienced sailor fine-tuning your technique or a capable crew building confidence, Giugi rewards attentive seamanship with predictable, forgiving handling.

Days unfold with natural rhythm: morning swims in luminous water, lazy lunches of local pasta and Sicilian wine anchored in hidden coves, and evening aperitivos as the sun softens the volcanic peaks behind you. The boat's compact galley produces surprisingly nourishing meals, while the single head—though modest—keeps everyone grounded in the simplicity that makes sailing restorative. Furnari itself offers authentic Sicilian character: family-run restaurants where fishermen still mend nets, markets bursting with lemons and caciocavallo cheese, and the kind of unhurried hospitality that reminds you why you came.

A week aboard Giugi is measured not in miles covered but in moments crystallised: the particular silence of a moonlit anchorage, the taste of sea urchin pasta at a harborside trattoria, the feel of wind filling canvas as you sail toward an island that appeared only that morning on the horizon.
