This experience, in a nutshell

Welcome! Supervised by your qualified instructor, available and attentive, you embark on a 2-day introductory sailing course.

You will discover the techniques of sailing, the basics of chart navigation and life on board.

The final technical objective is to obtain level 1 and to open up to level 2 of the French sailing federation.

You will live with the wind, feel and understand the reactions of the boat under the effect of the sails and your actions at the helm, while discovering a beautiful region seen from the sea.

I will make it a point of honour to ensure that the stay is in a good mood and friendly.

See you soon on board!

Thank you to Stéphanie for the 2 days spent with her. She was able to teach us the beginnings of sailing. Practice on the sea on Saturday and theory at the quay on Sunday (too windy). It's a shame we would have been happy to go out on Sunday, but safety first. For the rest? Who is Valentine? He had to contact us to answer our questions. No response to the emails and voicemails we had sent. The night before we learn that we have to have Patrick and on Saturday we have Stéphanie. Even the person in charge who was present on Saturday morning was not aware of it! A great vagueness for the organization of these two days. For provisioning, no information except just when you board. For the next sailors, take a tour of the boat's galley. There is plenty to do for several days, this will avoid duplication and there will be more room in storage. Synchronize the two sites, on your appointment at 8:00 a.m. on SNB's 9:00 a.m.

Great stage, we enjoyed every second of it. Valentin is super nice and caring. Thank you for these good times. The boat is not very young but it does.

Very good time, Valentin our Skipper very very well 👍 the boat would need a little rejuvenation, but very beautiful boat all the same. There you have it, we had a great week and we learned a lot about sailing.

I really enjoyed this experience, which was very educational but also stimulating and varied. The skipper, Valentin, was great. The boat is nice and in good condition, even if it has some moisture problems.
