Holland - Fahrtenyacht

PRACTICAL TRAINING

The SKS is in your pocket, the wanderlust is calling, now it's time to get going. But many people are feeling a little uneasy at this point.

Is one week of practical training from SKS enough?

What if we encounter difficult weather?

Technical problems turn the sailing trip into a night trip.

Unfamiliar, narrow ports may require different mooring maneuvers and line work. Many questions arise. There is simply a lack of practice.

This is where our sailing school comes in with the skipper training and advanced training trips. The skippers from the Rhine-Moselle boat school practice working with lines with you, practice harbor and MOB maneuvers with you and, if necessary, show you how to sail with AIS and radar. Ship safety and technology are also on the program. As your sailing school, we want to build up with you on the SBF See, but above all the SKS, in our advanced training trips. Seamanship, route planning, dealing with and calculating ocean currents and tides are also on the program, as is detailed daily weather information over coffee in the morning on the trip. A night trip and much more are included.

Bretagne - Racer by Pogo or RM Yachts

PRACTICAL TRAINING

Many questions arise after the SKS. Most of the time, there is simply a lack of practice. Here we have a trip that is difficult for a beginner to master alone in terms of the area and yacht.

This is where our sailing school comes in with the skipper training and advanced training trips in Brittany. In Brittany we go out into the Atlantic. We learn a lot about tide and current calculations according to ATT, the British system. Anyone who has learned this with us can navigate safely around the world. The use of various nautical instruments, such as AIS etc. is also part of the program. Ship safety and technology are also on the program. As your sailing school, we want to build on the SBF See with you on our advanced training trips, but above all on the SKS. Seamanship, route planning, calculating departure times, clearance heights and harbor entrances are everyday life. How do I get over the bar into the harbor and, above all, at what time do I have how much water under the keel? Daily weather information over coffee in the morning on the trip is a matter of course. Night trips, numerous lights and navigation marks and much more round off the program.

Very fast and modern yachts, such as the Pogo 36 or RM-Yacht, have hull speeds of over 10 knots, making it possible to reach daily targets that are completely out of reach with a classic cruising yacht. With the possible speed/SOG, 100% fun is guaranteed.
