Do I need to hire a pofessional skipper?
You will need a professional skipper if your knowledge of sailing is not adequate to skipper the boat yourself. Of course, many experienced and competent sailors who are perfectly able to skipper a boat themselves, nevertheless choose to hire a skipper. This is because this may make the sailing holiday more relaxing. You will of course benefit from the professional skipper’s local knowledge. If you wish, Aegean Yachts is able to select and provide a friendly, professional skipper to assist you. The usual language spoken is English, but we also have skippers speaking French, German and Italian. Please keep in mind that the professional skipper needs his own cabin.
