Day 0
We'll start the evening before with a welcome drink, a short briefing, and introductions. Afterwards, cabin assignments will be made and you can check in to your cabin.
Day 1
We'll start the maneuvering training immediately and head out to sea. This will give you the opportunity to familiarize yourself with the catamaran and its onboard technology.
After a short lunch break, we practice various maneuvers such as docking (Roman Catholic and alongside). Anchoring, picking up buoys, and reefing are also on the agenda. In addition, we practice setting and furling the sails.
Afterwards, we'll embark on a beautiful sundowner tour to the Porer lighthouse on the Premantura coast. With a bit of luck, we might even spot dolphins on our excursion.
Tonight you're invited to a dinner featuring delicious Istrian specialties. After an appetizer platter, we'll enjoy regional meat and fish dishes. Of course, vegetarian and vegan options are also available.
Day 2
Today we will repeat and reinforce the maneuvers shown yesterday with each participant individually, so that by the end of our training every crew member will have mastered all the maneuvers.
After that, the program includes general seamanship for skipper and crew, as well as throwing lines and warping. Of course, we'll also practice deploying fenders and maneuvering. In the early afternoon, after a wonderful day at sea, we'll return to base.
Following our training, you will receive your confirmation of participation for your skipper career.
