Flotilla Delivery Holidays
On a Neilson Delivery Trip, experienced sailors will enjoy
sailing our exciting three week route 'delivering' the Neilson
fleet of yachts from their winter home in Nidri to our flotilla base in Halkidiki for the
start of the summer holiday period and vice-versa.
Experienced sailors will love the challenges of this 3 week delivery trip. You will experience night sailing and some long legs of up to 60 nautical miles. During the trip some nights will be spent at anchor. Free sail days may not happen if weather conditions prove to be adverse and in such cases sailing legs may be longer. Wet weather gear is recommended.
Delivery Trip Dates
Guests on the April/May delivery will fly from London Gatwick to Corfu and transfer by boat and coach to Nidri, the starting point for the delivery, approx 3-4 hours away. You will the be sailing to Nea Skioni on the Halkidiki peninsula via the Corinth Canal, Saronic Gulf and Sporades. Guests will then fly out of Thessaloniki on the 12th May 2012. The September delivery guests will fly into Thessaloniki on the 29th September 2012 and return to the UK from Corfu on the 20th October 2012

Experience Levels
When booking a delivery trip holiday we ask that at least two people
aboard are aged 18 years or over and have plenty of sailing knowledge
and experience, having been in charge of a sailing vessel for several
cruises, possibly on previous flotilla holidays. Both must be
comfortable sailing in a range of conditions. If this level of
experience cannot be satisfied, a flotilla holiday may be more appropriate.
