ABOUT ME
Nice to meet you
Born in 1972, he grew up by the sea, since the age of 8 he can't stay away.
He began very early to engage with the world of boating alternating the command of any type of boat both sail and motor. When he was only 14 years old, he finished the refitting of the family boat "Troia Terza" maturing technical skills unthinkable for a "sailor" of that age. Although his classical studies "distracted" him for a few moments from the sea, the call was so strong as to lead him back to his element, the sea.
After working for the biggest Italian and foreign charter companies he founded Megaride Charter, a company specialized in boat rental and nautical services with a nautical base in one of the most beautiful villages in Italy, Borgo Marinari in Naples, his hometown.
Instructor FIV (Italian Sailing Federation), professional skipper, travel companion exceptional and last but not least, amazing cook, Andrea and 'a friend of those precious, always attentive to the needs of the crews, meticulous management of cruises and deep knowledge of the seas in which he navigates and' without a shadow of a doubt the best "cicerone" that I can wish to meet in going to sea.
His passion and 'contagious, certainly the naturalness with which it engages in command can not' that contagious approaching you forever to that wonderful world that is' sailing, told by him, I assure you will seem 'really "simple".
It has sailed in 2/3 of the globe, from the Mediterranean to the Atlantic passing for the seas of the North, from that Black to the Red one, in short it has indeed seen of all the colors!
He will welcome you with that smile that distinguishes him and that face a bit gruff but ... that typically "Neapolitan" will make you feel "at home" in no time, and in short you will have the feeling of knowing him for a long time ...

Andrea is definitely the captain x antonomasia, capable of transmitting his deep love and respect for the sea, he led us to the discovery of these enchanting islands with passion and competence, at one with the boat, with the sea, with the wind, there was no moment in which he faltered, in short, a real sea wolf! Great traveling companion then, we never missed the fun, including bathing in coves from dreams, toasts in profusion and impromptu choirs ... All seasoned with unexpected culinary virtues capable of satisfying even the most difficult palates (like mine ;P) thanks to the legendary Paolino who delighted us on more than one occasion with his fresh fish! Impeccable holiday crowned finally also by the enormous emotion of meeting with dolphins in the open sea x which I will never thank Andrea enough ... Thank you Captain, my captain!

It was really a pleasure sailing with Andrea, who managed to involve us in his greatest passions: the sea, food and music... A great connoisseur of the Aeolian Islands, he accompanied us in a week of carefree diving, laughter, excursions, sailing lessons, toasts, singing performances and delicious lunches and dinners on board the boat... I haven't eaten such good fish for a long time! The time unfortunately flew by, thanks also to my crewmates, with whom from the beginning there was a mutual understanding, I was really good with them! In short, super positive experience, to be repeated as soon as possible ...

Experience to sell, crazy cuisine and a 'excellent sailing expertise in charge. A true sea wolf guided us with much sympathy and gave advice for this beautiful archipelago, giving us emotions that each of us would dream of in a sailing holiday, from sailing to taste freshly caught fish. Thank you Captain!

Excellent skipper, competent and prepared both on technical aspects and crew management. Does not miss anything from the company to the good food he has always taken care of .... from the galley to the preparation .... to the management of the boat, to the security. Thank you thank you for the wonderful experience.

Andrea was an excellent skipper! Attentive to safety, competent and responsible in the management of the boat. He organized the times and the movements between the islands in the best way, avoiding the storms and inviting the off-plans. He always thought the galley and bought, at each stop, fresh fish and delicious local products, which cooked like a chef! The boat is very comfortable, clean and well maintained. Andrea was available, volcanic and always very active. Direct and face a little gruff, but always sunny and welcoming as a true Neapolitan Doc. A thank you also to Paolino, who with his guitar and the hospitality of Capo D'Orlando has enriched the group! Only desire not fulfilled, also for the little wind, open the sails and turn off the engine, for the rest, we enjoyed the Aeolian Islands fully!

Very positive and enjoyable holiday. Andrea is a skipper who transmits a lot of security both in navigation and maneuvers. True connoisseur of the Aeolian Islands! He delighted our palates with fish dishes cooked very well. Lots of good music and fun ... The boat is comfortable, only one note a single bathroom for aft cabins and bunk beds. I recommend everyone a holiday with Andrea A.
