Set sail on a flotilla holiday and you'll soon meet the Neilson crew, who'll show you around your yacht, answer any questions and help you settle in. They'll even point you in the direction of the bar, so you can get to know the rest of your flotilla.
Once you're on the water, you'll meet the lead crew each morning to hear the day's plan. If you need advice or a helping hand, the Neilson yacht crew are just a call away. They'll also make sure they are first to the evening's destination, so you'll get help with mooring up too, which is always a bonus.
