Be the one to lead your next journey!

If you have ever sailed or have a nautical qualification and are thinking of being responsible on board your own nautical experience or learning everything that comes with leading a voyage, this is your workshop!

Take the next step to become a sailboat manager and owner. In this Costa Brava training from Palamós, you will learn to skipper, organize the trip and the crew, and do everything necessary to give your next crew the experience of a lifetime.

It is
not necessary to have a nautical qualification, but you do need to know the basic nautical language and, above all, to be eager to learn every day.

We will practice during the Workshop:

Entry/Exit and maneuvers in port.

Advanced candle trimming.

Motor/sail mooring.

Enrollment between ships.

Route planning (Passage planning).

Weather analysis and routing.

Sailing with little or a lot of wind.

Efficiency in navigation maneuvers.

POB maneuvers and shipwrecked rescue.

Night navigation and guard management.

Calculation of tides and currents.

Simulation of emergency situations.

Regatta simulation.

Lead, enjoy, share and learn from the crew.

    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.
