Best Flotilla Company

[FigaroII]

There was some discussion about flotilla companies a few weeks ago.

I posted about my low cost but low value flotilla with Sailing Holidays in a leaking and mouldy boat.

I appreciate the law of the market dictates that you get what you pay for but there must be other, better low cost, operators. Does anyone have any recommendations for a low cost high value flotilla, in preferably well maintained boats that aren't going to break down ?

i thought setsail were good (greece).
and if you are willing to book at short notice you may get a good discount as the person you speak to in the office actually runs the company.

Hi

I'll second Setsail, we've been with then a couple of times now and thet are really good. Poros was great and the Greek islands are still quite cheap.

I really enjoyed my experience with Nielsen in Nidri, Greece. First week learning the ropes was on a fairly tatty boat which was due to be replaced next year. It was safe and reliable however. Second week was on a nice boat in good condition. The cost was about average. Competition in chartering is fairly stiff so you tend get what you pay for IMHO.

I've had two good trips with Sailing Holidays, and their refitted Jag 27s look very nice, for the price...
Going to Turkey with Setsail this year tho'
