Marco and his partner gave us the warmest of welcomes on a night that rain and high winds hit Palermo, but their boat proved to be very comfortable and cosy and almost serene in the way it handled the storm. After boarding, Marco gave us a run through where everything was and how to operate the two bathrooms, the galley (kitchen for us landlubbers), and other amenities on the boat.
They had also left an array of fruit, breakfast items, and a home-made apricot (we think) lattice tart, which having not eaten since lunch was much appreciated – as was the location the next day where we were a stones throw from the Old town. It was so good an experience we recommended it to a friend who was staying later in the week. Grazie.
