Course offered by Eduardo

If you already have some sailing experience and want to gain confidence and security with the maneuvers and situations that are more challenging for you when you decide to be the skipper of your own voyages, this is your chance to do so.

After the Murcia and Mallorca editions, we are launching this 3-day format from Denia to discover the north of the Costa Blanca, sailing through Denia, Jávea, Moraira, Altea...

It will be an intense workshop focused on the maneuvers and content that you most frequently ask us about in our workshops: maneuvers in port, nighttime navigation and in bad weather, nighttime anchoring and anchoring under sail only, anchoring with a rope on the ground (Mediterranean), getting to know the engine, knowing how to respond to various emergencies on board and many other complex maneuvers and situations that we will put into practice.

Among others, we will try to develop the following points:

Port manoeuvres: entry and exit, docking, influence of the wind, manoeuvring in tight spaces, communication and organisation with the crew...
Navigation in bad weather: weather analysis and route planning, manoeuvring in bad weather, navigating with a nautical chart...
Understanding the marine engine: basic aspects, frequently asked questions, maintenance...
Night navigation: preparation, operation of AIS, lights and signals, night piloting...
Anchoring: with a rope on the ground, anchoring at night, anchoring without a motor...
Emergencies on board: preparation, assignment of tasks, reaction in case of danger, person overboard...

  • Plan
    -Thursday 8:00 p.m. (optional):
    Boarding at Denia Marina to spend the night in port.

    -Friday 9:00 a.m.: Boarding and stowage to set sail at around 11:00 a.m.

    -Friday-Saturday-Sunday: These will be three intense days, where we will prioritize doing maneuvers, drills and exercises over doing miles.
    Of course, there will be time and place to enjoy ourselves while sailing and anchoring to eat, as well as having moments to swim and rest.

    - Sunday 17:00h: Disembarkation at Marina Denia

    * The idea, if the weather permits, is to sleep at anchor.

Other information
All crew members are welcome, even if they do not know the language spoken on board (english and spanish)

The workshop is adapted to the experience of each person, from crew members to PER, PY and CY. It is not necessary to have a nautical qualification, but it is necessary to have sailed before, to know the basic nautical language and, especially, to have the attitude and desire to continue learning.

Boat details

A modern and comfortable sailboat that sails very well in light and strong winds and is very spacious in the cockpit, deck and interior.

In perfect condition for maintenance and navigation, with a modern line and with all the maneuvering returned to the cockpit.

With more "full batten" to practice all the maneuvers of putting on and taking off reefs, etc.

    A very well organized and carried out workshop. I learned a lot during this week and discovered a very beautiful and interesting navigation area. Paco and Eduardo are not only excellent skippers and instructors, they are also great people to spend a week on a boat with.
    I would sail with them again at any time.
