About Luxury Crewed Sailing Yacht QUARTA SANTA MARIA
QUARTA SANTA MARIA is a Sangermani sailing yacht purpose-built for discerning guests seeking authentic Mediterranean passage under canvas. With five cabins accommodating ten guests, she offers the rare combination of traditional sailing aesthetics and contemporary comfort, ideal for those who value both seamless coastal discovery and genuine relaxation. Built in 1993, she retains the hallmarks of Italian craftsmanship that define the Sangermani pedigree.
Your experience unfolds under the stewardship of Captain Fabrizio Bartoli, whose two decades navigating these waters brings the steady, unobtrusive leadership that distinguishes truly refined charters. Supported by crew members Vanesa Joffre and Rommel Morante, the three work in concert to manage every detail of your voyage. Fabrizio commands with calm assurance, Vanesa maintains the yacht to exacting standards whilst attending to guest comfort, and Rommel brings a passion for Mediterranean cuisine that elevates each meal into a highlight of the day.
The itinerary centres on the Italian Riviera and Sicily, two regions where sheltered anchorages meet dramatic coastline. Whether you anchor in crystalline bays, explore vibrant ports, or simply sail the open Ligurian Sea, the crew shapes each day to match your mood. Dining becomes a genuine pleasure, water activities flow effortlessly, and the rhythm of coastal life reveals itself at precisely the pace you choose.

The Charter Experience
Chartering QUARTA SANTA MARIA offers the privilege of moving between Genoa, La Spezia, and Sicily's hidden anchorages without the logistical complexity that typically accompanies such journeys. Your crew handles navigation, provisioning, and the thousand small decisions that allow you to simply be present. Days unfold as slow swims in protected coves, unhurried lunches on deck, and evenings where the Ligurian or Sicilian coastline glows as your backdrop. There is no rushing; no synthetic hospitality. Instead, you experience the Italian coast as the crew knows it, with the benefit of their experience and the freedom to adjust plans on a whim. This is the essence of crewed sailing at this level: complete autonomy wrapped in attentive expertise.
Suggested Itinerary
A seven-day charter might depart Genoa, visiting the pastel villages of Portovenere and Cinque Terre before sailing toward Elba and the Tuscan archipelago. Alternatively, a Sicily-based week explores the Aeolian Islands, Mondello, and the dramatic coastlines near Palermo and Mondello, allowing time for both active exploration and anchored tranquillity. Your crew adapts the route based on weather, your preferences, and the rhythm of the sea.
