to reef, and so on ...
You will be given a technical manual upon registration outlining the theory
of sailing.
Morning start is at 8:30 am (after breakfast). Lunch is at noon whether
sailing or at anchor. We usually stop around 5 pm for night shelter, apéro,
supper, early to bed
Note. It is important to
note that all activities are shared. The skipper will prepare the first
breakfast to show everyone how the "galley" (kitchen) equipment
works The "trainee(s)" agree to participate in all areas and in
this way take a hand in his/her training in sailing and handling a large
boat.
These courses require a fair amount of energy to make them a success. They
include the minimum skills to master the art of sailing
and you will receive a Certificate of Proficiency outlining what you have
learned. This could be invaluable for future chartering or insuring a vessel.
