On your sailing trip usually you have to reach a destination, according to the fact that your crew is on vacation. Where is your time to practice maneouvering a sailing yacht?

At these special training days you will work out intensively what you can manage but not feel confident with. For example: ideal trimmed sails, effective crew leading and secure mooring when engine's broken.

Of course under expert guidance and with like - minded - people!

The program:

• keep the right cours

• trim your sails

• reef your sails

• tacking and gybing

After that program you should be ale to control the crew and to sail even there is little space.

Following program:

• BOB under sails... Common varieties will be exercised, their pro and contra seen and discussed. We will also train intensively with lifesling. The so acquired repertoire enables you to prepare your crew for the worst case!

• Assesment of ports and bays under the aspect of approaching under sails. In doing so one of the main questions is the possibility of return in case the maneouver does not work as expected.

• Maneouvering with full sails, reefed sails and with main sail only, in limeted space.

• Spinnaker-Training

• Berthing under sails with and without anchor.
