This experience takes place aboard a Leopard 42 (2025) catamaran designed to offer catamaran sailing with a different approach: more real, more technical and more connected to the sea.

My personal way of understanding navigation is to learn by doing, with professional judgment and without unnecessary rigidity. This program is exactly that.

For 3 days we will cross the Strait of Gibraltar, one of the most interesting and demanding areas for sailing, combining real travel with applied training.

We embarked in Sotogrande to get to know each other, understand the boat and prepare well for the experience. For me, this point is key: a good base completely changes what happens next at sea.

From there:

- Active catamaran sailing.

- Crossing the Strait (Europe → Africa).

- Maritime Traffic Management (TSS).

- Real teamwork on board.

It's not a classic course, nor is it a regular charter. It's an experience where you're going to participate, understand what's going on and start making meaningful decisions. All in a close environment, but with a high professional standard.
