Yacht captain and PPER with extensive experience in crossings and regattas. I enjoy sailing in almost any situation, relaxed on vacation or competitive of regattas. I do not care about the bad weather or sleep little or anywhere but I detest the problems of coexistence on board.

Boat details

Day cruise based on the San Juan Reservoir. It is an ideal boat for teaching due to its capacity and nobility of reactions, and for regattas in protected waters since its design, derived from the j80, makes it a fast and ventolinero boat. It is equipped with a spinaker maneuver, which gives it a good disposition for regattas.

Other users say
Customers who have experienced this activity highlight a great theoretical and practical learning experience in sailing. They emphasize the professionalism and teaching skills of the skippers (Luis, Queco, Octavio, Ana), appreciating their patience, empathy, and knowledge. The activity is very enjoyable, with an excellent atmosphere and unbeatable value for money. The boat is described as immaculate. Many repeat the experience or recommend it 100%. It is ideal for beginners or for refreshing concepts, allowing participants to rotate roles. Interestingly, even with little wind, instructors adapted the day to maintain the high learning value. An excellent experience.

    More than satisfactory experience. Ana is a great professional with a lot of knowledge to share and transmit. Proof of this is that we had an extra experience, when the engine broke down and had to dock under sail. Wonderful, thank you Ana for everything you taught us and the day we spent. I'll repeat.

    Very good experience. Instructor is patient and explains the concepts very clearly. At first there is little wind so we take advantage to see the topics in a theoretical way, then when the wind picks up we go out to sail. From tack to tack. Highly recommended experience.

Post your question
  • The only experience I have is PER practices and extension of sail attribution, done in Alicante more than a year ago. Is it suitable for this course?
    • Yes, in my opinion it is appropriate, then you practice, review and learn new things, you already know that navigation, like many things, is practical. On the other hand, prof. (in my case Queco) is great, professionally and personally. The boat is very good, so in summary I highly recommend it. Greetings
