Owner: Cynthia and Greg

Yacht: Benetau Oceanis 423

Services: Guardianship

"If you own a yacht, you know how complicated and stressful it can be to get work done—especially when you are 3000 miles away. With our limited cruising window, we’d prefer to not spend our summers on the hard with a breakdown. Problem solved: we have Roman as our guardian. Local to Gouvia, speaking fluent Greek and English, and liked by everyone, we are so grateful to know that Roman is looking out for us and S/V Celia.

After a season of sailing our new-to-us 423, we recognized it needed some major refitting to be reliable and fun to sail. We left Celia at the Gouvia Marina, with a laundry list of projects - including piles of dirty laundry. Roman immediately and systematically started getting things taken care of starting with the haul out then on to ….new standing rigging, furler, sails, prop, refinished counters the list goes on. All this in the first 6 months!  With each of these tasks he offered technical and cost options to accomplish the goal.

Roman is amazing! We really can’t say enough about how he has taken care of us and Celia. He stays in frequent communication, sending photos and videos, letting us know everything."

“Roman has been helping me for a year with my sailing yacht. I cannot praise him enough: he has looked after me and my boat expertly and enthusiastically.  He takes pride in everything he does - whether it’s instructing, maintenance, guardianship or just giving friendly advice.  When he says he’ll do something, he does it to a high standard and at a very competitive rate.  He clearly loves the sea and boats.  A first class professional.  I feel fortunate to know him.”
