    Spent two beautiful nights sleeping out in bays around Gozo. Boat comfortably slept all four of us. Girls loved the paddle board. Had a couple meals on shore and made some good dinners on the boat. Michael is very knowledgeable about sailing and shared lots of interesting information and stories. Thank you for the lovely time.

    We had an amazing 3 days aboard the boat with Michael. The boat is spacious and well kept, Michael couldn’t have been more helpful, nothing was too much trouble including changing our plans due to sea sickness, Michael took us to a quiet bay which solved the issue. We had a fantastic bbq on board and the swimming was great. We also enjoyed an excellent dinner and lunch at a fishing village. I recommend chartering a boat through Click and Boat and specifically sailing with Michael.

    This was a truly unforgettable day on the water. From the very beginning, everything was organized with care and attention. Our captain, Michael, was not only professional but also an amazing host — he shared a lot of interesting stories, made us feel completely comfortable, and brought us to the most beautiful bay where we could swim and relax in crystal-clear water. The yacht was perfectly prepared, with delicious snacks, refreshing drinks, and everything we needed to feel taken care of. It was a combination of great service, warm hospitality, and a personal touch that made this trip so special. We travel a lot and have tried yacht experiences in different places, but this one truly stands out. Highly recommended if you want both luxury and a welcoming atmosphere.

    I had the most amazing day on the water in Malta, and it was all thanks to Michael. From the moment I stepped on board, he was so welcoming and personable. His passion for sailing and deep knowledge of the area are unmatched. I felt completely safe and well-cared for. This was more than just a boat rental; it was a one-of-a-kind adventure. A massive thank you for an unforgettable day!

    We had an unforgettable day sailing with our skipper, Michael. He impressed us with his deep knowledge of the island, showing us stunning hidden spots and sharing fascinating stories from his many years of sailing experience. Michael was fun, friendly, and an absolute pleasure to be around. He prepared a delicious light lunch, provided snorkeling gear, and tailored our route to match our wishes. Everything was smooth, relaxed, and full of good vibes. Highly recommended to anyone looking for an amazing day on the water!

    Best experience on a yacht - full stop. Michael’s expertise and planning is second to none. We spent several days together crossing the Mediterranean into Africa, and it will stand out as one of the most memorable experiences of my life. I never once felt unsafe, and more so, I learned a tremendous amount from him every step of the way. If you’re spending a day with Michael and NuShen around Malta, you’ll have an absolute blast as he knows all the spots and the ins and outs of the island and all the beauty that comes with it. If you’re spending a week with Michael, then consider yourself lucky for meeting one of the most interesting and capable people both on the sea and on land. I couldn’t have asked for a better captain, and now friend. He was communicative through the whole process, and we worked quite well together through both challenging and beautiful weather - things can and do go wrong, but it’s all about grace under pressure. The Mediterranean can be unpredictable in the winter, and we took advantage of proper planning against the weather windows, and even adapted as needed. He won’t admit it, but he’s a bit of a celebrity in the yachting space. He’s a salty dog with fans across continents - you should see how people light up when they see him. That’s the hallmark of a truly special individual. I would sail again with Michael in a heartbeat. I can’t emphasize enough what a marvelous experience this was.

    We sailed as a family of 4 for the entire day with Michael from Sanglea to Comino and the Blue Lagoon! We had a fantastic experience and enjoyed a lot the day, the sailing and the wonderful company of Michael. He is a fantastic human being and an incredibly knowledgeable skipper! It felt like being with a friend known since a long time. He shared tens of stories of his past sailing experiences and adventures. Thanks for the great day and company Michael… from now on we will look forward the green flashing at the sunset and think of you! Wishing you all the best and good wind for your future adventures!

    We absolutely had the BEST day with Micheal aboard NuShen. Such a warm, friendly, calm, funny and welcoming captain who made the day so enjoyable. Micheal has an incredible history aboard NuShen and his sailing life so stories flowed all day which was so interesting and captivating. The boat was clean and had plenty space to sit or lounge out in the Maltese sunshine. Lunch was lovingly prepared and just the perfect style of food for the day (and the heat!). I would highly recommend sailing with him any day. We’ll be back soon :)

    Michael hosted my husband and I for an amazing 2 night charter from Senglea up to Comino and then to Gozo. Unfortunately the winds weren’t in our favor but Michael made the best of it and truly gave us an unforgettable experience. He prepared delicious meals and provided great conversation. We absolutely recommend Michael and might book a longer charter with him to Sicily in the future.

    I am a very experienced sailor and have sailed extensively in many parts of the world so my critique for our time on Nushen is based on hard experience . My wife and I want to thank Michael for his excellent yacht handling and local knowledge that led to to some fabulous days on the waters between Malta and Sicily on Nushen . Michael was an outstanding skipper and and great host with lots of knowledge and experiences to share . Nushen was in fine order and an excellent ocean capable yacht that Michael was understandably proud of and with lots of further upgrades planned into the future. We look forward to potentially travelling again on Nushen and with Michael into the future and recommend his services highly.

    We had an amazing day with Captain Michael on his beautiful boat. Everything is very comfortable, and cozy but at the same time, it shines with adventure and makes you want to go around the world with this boat. We are people who have no experience in sailing, but our entire perspective on it has changed after these two days spent on the Nushen boat. We were anchored one night in a beautiful lagoon and ate delicious octopus salad and fresh tuna made by the Capitan. Not only Michael is a wonderful person, one of a kind, full of wisdom and so humble but he is also a crafted chef and we ate the most delicious meal. We are so grateful for this experience. We will remember this for the rest of our lives and can't wait for new adventures with Captain Michael on his beautiful boat Nushen.

    If I could give more than 5 stars I would. We chatted NuShen with Michael as our skipper for a 4 night charter and sailed around Malta and her islands. It was an unforgettable trip with too many magical moments to count. Michael is a very experienced sailor and knew where to visit and when to maximise enjoyment and minimise crowds. NuShen is a beautiful and comfortable sailing boat. We are well, slept well, swam well and sailed well and had the time of our lives. Thank you for a wonderful trip. We will be back.

    Embarking on a thrilling 4 night adventure around Malta and its mesmerizing islands aboard a beautiful classic yacht was a dream come true for our family. Our exceptional host, Michael was warm, knowledgeable and very experienced in the region. He took us to stunning landscapes creating picturesque backdrops between sailing from one captivating destination to another. He was particularly inclusive and a great communicator with our teenage children. This extraordinary trip has forged unforgettable memories and strengthened the family's love for exploration and adventure.

    If you’re looking for a relaxing day with a knowledgeable captain, you’ve found it. Michael communicated with me from my initial reservation until we departed from a relaxing day on his boat. The lunch he prepared was an added touch and learning about his family and travels was a delight. If you want a non commercialized day or multi day charter, you’ll enjoy this boat and it’s wonderful captain.

    Michael was a very friendly and relaxed captain, and was very knowledgeable and super kind and understanding of our needs as a group (and we had a toddler with us). The only (minor) negative was that the cushions could have been a bit thicker and a slightly bigger shade for the seating area would have been ideal. That did not detract from the experience and we would book Michael again.

    Very nice and experienced skipper who is good with children. He knows Malta like the back of his hand. The boat is older but well maintained and clean. It conveys a safe feeling, even with more wind and waves. One star deducted for the too short passarella (gangway) which made it difficult for my wife and children to get ashore or on board. Despite the bad weather, it was a successful holiday.

    Wonderful few days spent on NuShen under the guidance and experience of Michael. Great host with a good knowledge of local waters. Both my wife and I were made to feel safe and comfortable and were welcomed onboard. We received a confident safety briefing and familiarisation of the boat and settled in well. Sailing was fantastic around the Maltese islands and our host ensured that we got the best out of the weather conditions. We were treated to homemade pasta and other hearty meals, which were generous in portion size and delicious in taste. Positioning the boat in the evenings meant we were sheltered and nights were pleasantly calm considering the windy conditions. The cabin is adequately sized and comfortable with all bedding provided. The host ensured our stay was relaxed and chilled. Many thanks Michael for the sailing experience and a pleasure to have made your acquaintance.
