If you are looking for experience and technification and are interested in sailing on a cruise, take advantage of this opportunity. We will set sail from Santander to A Coruña, facing a high altitude journey across the Cantabrian Sea, and then continue to the Rías Baixas in demand of Vigo. During the trip, secondary stops will be planned and planned.

It's not just navigating from port to port. It is a journey planned in the Mile Building format, actively participating in the life and operation of the ship:

• Defeat planning and meteorology.

• Guards and day/night navigation.

• Coastal navigation.

• Sail maneuvering and trimming.

• Crew organization.

• Decision making and management on board.

• Port entry and exit.

• Many miles and many hours of sailing.

A particularly interesting route for those who want to gain experience, ease and miles, prepare for higher qualifications or simply experience a demanding and different week of sailing.

The ship, a 2003 Dufour 34, is prepared for sailing on a cruise and is specially designed for small groups, focusing the training process on the technification of its crew members according to the needs of each one.

It is not necessary to have an advanced level: we will distribute roles and responsibilities according to the experience of each crew member.
