Testimonials
|
We are very proud of our yachts and consistency in offering great service over many years - but don't just take our word for it! As well as the older testimonials throughout our website, see what some of our clients had to say about us and their recent sailing holidays. |
"We had a great time on the boat which was well kitted out and well maintained, the marina is a lovely base and the sailing area fantastic. Looking forward to coming back some time". |
|
"This was our first go at yacht chartering and Colin's excellent briefing and the support from him and Sue during the week were a huge help... would definitely recommend Pinnacle to anyone." |

"Yet again we had another great year with Pinnacle Yachts. Corfu is a great base from which to see the island, mainland and the nearby islands of Paxos and Antipaxos. Lakka Bay is a firm favourite of ours. The bays are beautiful and crystal clear, and there's nothing like dropping the sails and swimming in the warm deep blue waters of the Ionian sea. Colin and Sue's personal touches are great, with daily texts on the weather, and recommendations on where to go if you get stuck for a mooring. Our third year with Pinnacle and we will be going back." Richard & Geri, June - 2009 |
"Very friendly atmosphere and good service. Boats nice and fully equipped. I have already recommended services of Pinnacle Yachts to friends!" |
|
"Thank you both so much for another wonderful week in the Ionian, returning and trying a new boat and some new harbours was a fantastic break after a dismal winter. The temperature in May was just right and the boat, as before, was in immaculate condition a real credit to your passion and attention to detail. A calm briefing on the technicalities of bow or stern to moorings meant that they went without a hitch even earning a ripple of applause in one harbour. We will definitely be back to try out your newest acquisition. Thank you again" |

"We chartered Thalassa in July 09 and had a fantastic time. Sue & Colin made it all happen so easily. The boat was prepared and made ready for us to step aboard, be briefed and set sail on our Ionian cruise. Would thoroughly recommend Pinnacle Yachts and sailing the Ionian region." Phil Willis - July 2009 |
"I would like to thank you for making our two week bareboat charter in September so enjoyable. I was particularly impressed with your helpful attitude which allowed us to maximise our time cruising on a well maintained boat. I would not hesitate to recommend Pinnacle Yachts to anyone planning a sailing holiday from Corfu." |

"Pre holiday communication from Pinnacle was fab, the yachts we hired were well equipped and in excellent order, Colin & Sue were very supportive." Ian Storrie - October 2009 |
"We sailed with Pinnacle yachts for the second time this September. Sue and Colin were again delightful hosts - always ready to help with any queries, recommending some great places and never too busy for a bit of a chat. Sue kindly assisted a member of our party, who had to cancel due to ill health, with some extra paperwork. Thanks a million!" |
|
"We had a fantastic time, the boat was great and your preparation, help, and the space you gave us was really appreciated. Thanks again." |
|
"Just a brief note to say thanks for last week, in particular your help and support and great attitude. It was nice to receive such a warm welcome. We look forward to coming back to Pinnacle next year." |
|
"Returning to Pinnacle Yachts for the second year, Sue and Colin made our charter of Thalassa as effortless as the last time. All the paperwork smoothly dealt with, they sent us off from the marina with a clear briefing on the, by now familiar, yacht for a week of relaxed day sailing. The boat is a joy. All the lines run into the cockpit and she sails beautifully. Helpfully, Sue texts us with a weather briefing each morning so we can decide which particular taverna to head to for lunch! Returning at the end of the week to the fuel quay, they meet us for a quick hand over and a cheery farewell. Looking forward to next year." |

"We are now back in what is a grey and wet England and are missing the sun, sea and Sirokos. Thanks for a great time on a well maintained boat." Ian Strachan, - Sirokos, Sept 2008. |
"We found Pinnacle Yachts on the internet and could tell straight away they were a good independent company as the website was really informative but not flashy. I think the price was also far better value for money than all the other sites we looked at and so we decided to go for it. All the joining instructions were sent in good time and easy to follow. We had both done some sailing before but when we were handed over the yacht we were so impressed with how clean and well equipped it was, almost better than new in fact. Colin and Sue talked us all through the equipment on board and over a cold drink we were shown where all the best places to visit are in the area. Spoilt for choice is an understatement as after two weeks there were still so many lovely places we did not have time to visit. Sue sent us regular text messages with the weather forecast whilst we were sailing and was always available for help and advice if we needed it. We certainly had the best holiday of our lives and were very sad to finally hand back the boat. If you have never been sailing before I can’t recommend a better place to learn or a better company to charter through. The weather was fantastic with a perfect gentle wind, Colin & Sue are passionate about their yachts and just can’t do enough to help. We would love to come back and will start saving now for next years charter!" |

"Thank you once again for an absolutely magical week on Thalassa.Our catchphrase throughout was "Could this be any better?" to which the answer was always a resounding "No, it couldn't!" The yacht was immaculate and so easy to handle. The recommended itinerary was one delight after another." Chris, Catriona, Graham, Sandra, Gary and Lorna - Thalassa, Sept 2008. |
"We had a superb time on Saving Grace with Ray & Annette, was very hard to leave in the end. Thank you for all your help, hope to catch you again next year." |
|
"I would like to let you know how much we all enjoyed our week with Pinnacle Yachts in Corfu. We had an absolute whale of a time and are already making plans for next year. Sirokos is a lovely boat, easy to handle in even quite “challenging” conditions as we found out getting in to Benitses one day in a nasty little storm!
Gouvia made a great base for our week of cruising, lovely facilities (great showers and pool bar) and so conveniently located. Sue and Colin made us very welcome and made sure that we had everything we needed for a fantastic week's sailing." |

"The sailing area is gorgeous and Pinnacle's boats are all in great condition. We had a blast; can't wait to be back. Thanks Colin and Sue!" Seth Cooper, Washington, DC. - Oneiro, Sept 2008. |
"Just a quick note to say a great big thank you for providing us with a fantastic holiday. It's now Tuesday morning and it's pouring with rain outside and we've even got the heating on so it's making the last couple of weeks in Greece feel like some sort of dream!
The boat was excellent and really clean and your personal service was lovely. We hope to be able to use Pinnacle Yachts again!" |
|
"I can say that we all enjoyed our week on Thalassa and the service we received from you both before and during our charter was second to none. This was my first charter of any sort and the help and guidance given was much appreciated. Anyone thinking of 'bareboat charter' should talk to you first. The boat was excellent, very clean and everything worked. A most rewarding experience. I wish you every success in the future and hope to return before long." |

"We have at last got round to emailing to say a huge thank you for yet another fantastic holiday. We really did have a super time and both the standard of the boat and the support you provide give peace of mind that everything will go smoothly. We have no doubt we’ll be back again, in 2010 if not next year – we’ll see. Attached are a few of our holidays pictures in some of the more out of the way places – we really did make it to the end of the gulf again, but don’t tell everyone as we wouldn’t want to spoil the peace and quiet. Anyway, thanks again for everything." Sue, Jeremy, Robert & Clare - Oneiro, 2001, 2004, 2006, 2008 and Thalassa in 2010. |
"Thank you both once again for a fabulous week on "Thalassa". It really was a fantastic experience....life changing." |
|
"I would just like to thank you both on behalf of myself, Dianne, Dave and Anne for our superb week onboard Thalassa. The service from yourselves was first class along with the standard of the boat. I would not hesitate in recommending you to our fellow sailors and look forward to seeing you again soon." |
