Thanks TejasSailer for the pointer to setsail - I''ve requested a quote from them.

I live in the UK so I''ll check out a copy of Yachting Monthly too.

Thanks chrondi for the proposition. I''ve already planned to do this flotilla with another couple and we''re quite settled on Turkey as an easy sailing area. Seemed like a better choice than the Ionian. We considered the Dodecadese with a hired skipper for a while but eventually decided to go the flotilla route for our first charter. We''re also stuck doing this in August because of school holidays.

As for sharing information, I can give you my link to my wiki where I''ve been trying to capture some of my (very rough) notes on researching this flotilla holiday:

I don''t mind if anyone wants to add to it.

I''d be happy to try the Dutch flotilla sites if I could reach Dutch :-)
