If you already have a nautical qualification or have some experience sailing and are thinking about being responsible on board for your own nautical experience or learning everything that comes with leading a voyage, this is your workshop!
Take the next step to become responsible and skipper of the sailboat. In this training through Rías Baixas from Vigo, you will learn to skipper, organize the voyage and the crew, and do everything necessary so that your next crew has the experience of their life.
It is not necessary to have a nautical qualification, but you do need to know the basic nautical language and, above all, be eager to learn every day.
We will practice during the Workshop:
-Passage planning
-Weather analysis and routing
-Entry/Exit and maneuvers in port
-Efficiency in navigation maneuvers
-Advanced sail trimming
-POB maneuvers and castaway rescue
-Navigation in bad weather
-Night navigation and guard management
-Calculation of tides and currents
-Motor/sail anchoring
-Accommodation between ships
-Simulation of emergency situations
-Regatta simulation
-Continuous improvement through UX System
-Lead, enjoy, share and learn from the crew
Due to last year's success, this year we have two dates, one with 2 sailboats (Elan 45 and Elan 40) and another with 3 sailboats (2x Elan 45 and 1x Elan 40). The students will be distributed on each sailboat based on the needs to balance levels of nautical experience.
