Shaka Sailing
Our sailboat


OUR
history
A beautiful 14.15m Sun Odyssey 45.2 sailboat, well-equipped and seaworthy. Thien Hau is a family boat designed for comfort but also capable of handling the wind when the time is right. We chose it primarily because we were dreaming of the family getaways we regularly take… and of a future transatlantic crossing! Luca has been sailing for over 25 years.
Comfortable cabins, two bathrooms, a spacious saloon, a lovely cockpit, a beautiful teak deck, and outdoor lounge chairs. Thien Hau has 4 double cabins; we can accommodate a maximum of 6 people, and often limit it to 4 or 5 to allow everyone to have plenty of space.
Services on board your sailboat in Corsica:
o Small, home-cooked meals (apparently delicious) with supplies throughout our journey, you'll sit back and relax while we toast to your holidays and the summer!
The opportunity for cultural enrichment: we provide magazines, books, and guides, and Sonia is also a history/geography teacher in the winter. We have an intimate knowledge of Corsica since we have lived there for decades… As for Italy, Luca is Italian!
o Sailing lessons are available for those who wish to take them; Luca is a sailing instructor and a 200-ton sailing captain. He has worked in clubs both with children in dinghy sailing and with keelboats with children and adults.
o Room for the unexpected and for encounters. We have our itinerary but we also navigate with nature, its constraints but also its little gifts…no question of missing playful dolphins or a beautiful sunset…we forget the stress and the pre-established stages.
The option to embark either in a cabin or exclusively. We like to offer everyone the possibility of a week-long cruise by allowing cabin rentals… and… we love diverse crews, the atmosphere that can be built there, the miracle of harmony that is always quickly found. We share the same tastes, the same interests, we have the same expectations, and harmony is always present! With us, we forget about time, often even the day (!), and the stresses of everyday life.
As you've probably gathered, with us you'll never be bored, nothing will be standardized, and you'll quickly feel like part of the family. We do this job with passion, welcoming you like family or close friends. You'll remember us, but we'll remember you too…and we'll both be in each other's albums.
