"Next-Gen" Sail and Skipper training

 

Training young, aspiring skippers has always been a source of great joy and fulfillment for me. Sharing my passion and experience, especially with the next generation, is what making me tick.

 

After many successful courses with younger students, I’ve often heard them express the wish to train and sail alongside others from their own generation, rather than spending an entire week surrounded by Old People. I’ve decided to make that happen!

 

I’m inviting “student-aged” sailors to join this unique training program:

   

•    1 Week of RYA Training: Beginners will work toward the RYA Competent Crew Certificate, while those with more experience (and prior theoretical study) can aim for the RYA Day Skipper License.  

 

•    1 Week of Ocean Adventure: Embark on a thrilling journey around the Canary Islands, sailing day and night and covering over 500 nautical miles.This program extends far beyond the standard RYA syllabus.

 

While mastering the art of sailing, participants will also gain invaluable life skills, such as:    

•    Teamwork and leadership  

•    Effective communication    

•    Problem-solving and decision making 

•    Commitment and responsibility

 

Additionally, students will experience the unique freedom of disconnecting from land, becoming fully immersed in the natural beauty of the ocean, and navigating the challenges of wind and weather to reach their destination.
