The courses
At the school we believe that almost everyone can learn to sail and navigate and that it doesn't necessarily have to take oceans of time. Almost all of our courses are therefore intensive courses. You can find our courses here and in the menu at the top under “Courses in English”. If you would like help with registration or have further questions, you are more than welcome to contact us. Welcome.
Certificate of Proficiency in Sailing
The certificate of competency is recommended because it gives you the best conditions to travel at sea, for the benefit of your safety and that of others. The instruction is tailored to new and slightly experienced recreational sailors. You will learn about maritime regulations, navigation, maritime safety, prevention and fighting of fires in small vessels and protection of the marine environment.
