Advanced sailing cruise in Corsica

And with miles and time on the water comes experience and confidence. Confidence not only in your own abilities but also confidence in how a boat handles and indeed what she can handle if you end up with testing weather and sea conditions.

We sail from Chiavari and aim to make a passage around Corsica. You will get about 250 nautical miles, planning and executing long passages, plenty of night sailing and experience of passing shipping (all dependent on weather). This is a good way to gain mileage for the Swiss Sea Licence. It is also possible to make your astro navigational sights if you are working towards your Yachtmaster Ocean.

The emphasis is on having fun under the guidance of one of our experienced instructors, who will give you the opportunity to do as much or as little as you like.

Plan

With a team of 5-6 like minded sailors we will leave Chiavari working in watches to sail down to the coas of Corsica. Then planning our route round Corsica and back across to Chiavari.

Communication with the front office was punctual and clear. Our very trained, professional and empathetic instructor Fabrizio helped us in every phase of the training so that we could get the best possible result. From a technical point of view, which is the focus in such an activity, excellent experience.

I applied for the competent crew course as a real beginner.
It's been an amazing experience; Fabrizio, the instructor, is a very well organized person, able to let you learn whatever is in your capabilities.
I'm glad I got this experience, I'll be more confident with sailboats from now on, and I know that with this RYA course my approach will be more professional
