Route details
Our training course consists of two stages:
Stage 1: Theory
Before the practical classes, you will be given access to video recordings of lectures (35 hours) and a testing system so that you can thoroughly study the material. A good knowledge of theory is the basis for successful and effective training.
By the beginning of the practice, you will be confident in your theoretical training: you will learn everything about the design of the vessel, including the names of the rigging, the structure of the sailing and motor yacht and the operation of the yacht equipment. You will also learn how forces affect the yacht and sail during maneuvers. The theoretical course includes the basics of hydrometeorology, radio communications, navigation rules, personal safety and maritime law – everything that is necessary for a competent captain.
Stage 2: Practice
The practical part lasts 14 days, with accommodation on the yacht. Of these:
- 10 days – training from 10:00 to 18:00,
- 3 days – training swimming,
- The last day is the exam.
As a result, you will record 200 nautical miles in your logbook. The crew consists of no more than 5 people. The training is conducted under an official contract, and our instructor has more than 15 years of experience.
During practice, you will master the basic maneuvers both under the engine and under sail. Special attention will be paid to mooring, the "Man overboard" maneuver, navigation and radio communications.
Our goal is to prepare you to become a confident and competent skipper, able to rent and operate a sailboat on your own.
Result:
After successfully passing the exams, you will receive the IYT Bareboat Skipper Sail license to operate a sailing yacht up to 24 m and 20 miles offshore, as well as a VHF radio operator certificate.
