Much more than a sailing academy. Their are a lot of points I critically evaluate at any company I am dealing with, may it be a hotel, a travel agency, a tool shop whatsoever: 1. Is the product worth its money? 2. Is the staff communicating well? 3. If it s a complex product like travels which include accomodation, food, other how is the whole thing organized? How the company treats problems, disruption of plans, unforeseen developments, stress? Are they friendly? Does the staff keeps its friendlyness constantly? And so on The Adriatic Sailing Academy is one of the rare examples where I have no critique at all. I learned a lot about sailing. Fabio is a great guy and teacher sailing since he was a little boy. He knows a hell lot about the sea, boats, dangers etc. The Matijevic family was not just the first tourist agency in Rijeka after the war in Croatia in 1991, they are also active in preserving the cultural heritage of the seafaring at the Croatian costs while owning and expensively preserving an tradional wooden sailing ship. Chapeau! I hope my Skipper s training at the Adriatic Sailing Academy was just the beginning of a long a fruitfull partner- and friendship!
