Welcome Sailor!
Come participate in a superb sailing experience on the French Riviera.
On board you will learn the maneuvers and the different paces of a sailboat for maybe one day if you wish to be able to enjoy yours independently.

During this course you will have the opportunity to confront all aspects of the boat's journey and life on board:
- Preparation of the navigation
- Driving the boat
- Setting the sails
- Using the instruments
- Participation in the organization of life on board.

The principle of organizing internships is to allow everyone to find their place according to their wishes, their skills but also their limits. Everyone has the opportunity to invest according to their interests without being constrained.
The objective is to allow each member of the crew to benefit from his stay without ever finding himself in difficulty.

Hoping to have you soon on board

Check out the crew!

Reviews of Serge

8 / 10

Génial ! Cette première croisière a parfaitement répondu à mes attentes : traversée en corse, cabotage le long des côtes magnifiques, utilisations de tout le gréement (spi, tanguon, code 0, génois et grand voile) dans des conditions exceptionnelles et avec des équipiers vraiment sympathiques. Serge connaît parfaitement son bateau et pourra rassurer les plus anxieux dans des conditions de navigation difficiles.
