When we arrived in Procida we found out our boat's name was Filomeane and it would be our home for the next week as we sailed around the Amalfi Coast.
She was a Beneteau Oceanis 46.1 4 cabin 2 head sailboat, it was the perfect size for our group. The cockpit was large enough for us to all sit while sailing and still gave us enough breathing room so we were not on top of each other. there other great thing this boat has was a hydraulic swim platform, at the touch of a button the transom went down and made it easy to get on and off the boat as well as getting back on after taking a dip.

This was our first look at Filomeane
After getting all our bags on board and picking cabins we knew this was going to be the perfect boat. A little story about this boat, originally we booked our trip on a 41.3' Beneteau, but a week before we left for Italy, the charter company called us and said there was something wrong with our boat and we had to take a different boat, and that different boat was bigger. Moral of the story, we received a free upgrade before we even left the States!
