William is an experienced and knowledgeable instructor. He was patient and kind, and I've learned a lot from him.
The boat itself was in great condition. I have stayed on the boat for the course duration and was quite comfortable.
I also liked the region where the course took place.
I will return for the next course!

A fantastic sailing and team building experience. During the Day Skipper I grew both technically and personally. Our instructor Wim handled every situation with calmness and a smile. We were five students who of course made mistakes, but thanks to his patience and perseverance, every mistake became a chance to learn.

I feel so lucky to have found Cathy and her school. There is absolutely no end to her availability and willingness to make sure my Day Skipper experience was fulfilling. Incredible instructors (quite hilarious), wonderful boats, and Gibraltar is perfect for wind and experience.
Thank you, Cathy!!!

I have joined the Competent Crew course, it was my first experience on a boat! William is a truly incredible instructor and capitan. Despite the rain, the wind or other challenges he was always calm and positive! He embraced our mistakes with poise and humour hoping they would help us to learn! Looking forward to back!

One of the best experiences ever. The knowledge, the passion, the commitment, and genuinity of Daniele is unmatched.What a gem. Daniele transformed our group into a cohesive beautiful crew. Even though we were unlucky with the weather some days, Daniele always managed to turn it around to a great day.

Great week learning how to sail with William. He has two boats and I was on the boat with more experienced crew. Had my own very comfortable cabin. Only 3 crew so we all got to skipper for two days each. It was fun, exhilarating and of course stunning scenery. William is patient and has a ton of knowledge to share. Hug
