The course is conducted on a modern sailing yacht of approximately 45 feet (around 13.5 m), the most popular and practical yacht size in the charter industry. This means you will train on the exact type of boat you are most likely to charter in the future.
The yacht features 4 cabins, each accommodating two participants, with additional berths available in the saloon if needed. This size offers an excellent balance between comfortable working space and realistic sailing conditions. It is also agile enough for precise manoeuvring in marinas, anchorages, and under sail.
Throughout the course, you will become familiar with the yacht’s systems, equipment layout, pre-departure preparation, and correct procedures for docking, sailing, and safe handling of a sailing yacht in this category.
A hands-on, real-world sailing experience designed to prepare you for independent charter sailing with confidence.
