We will meet at the port of Ibiza where a boat born and equipped for offshore sailing will be waiting for us. Boarding is scheduled for Friday from 7 pm to 11 pm, where after a short meeting, the route to follow and the departure time will be decided together with the crew and based on the marine weather conditions, (we could also set sail at night).
The topics covered during the course in addition to the management of the route in relation to marine weather conditions as mentioned above will be:
- in-depth analysis of the weather forecast,
- choice of sails based on the intensity of the wind,
- bow sails management (code 0, gennaker and asymmetric spinnaker)
- crew management (guard and rest shifts),
- navigation in bad weather with possible use of staysail, storm jib or floating anchor,
- emergency management through practical simulations,
- review of safety regulations to prevent collisions and accidents at sea.
The boat and the Pogo yard need no introduction, the "performance cruising" for
excellence, planing hull, buoyancy reserves, carbon mast and the most modern
instruments are some of the features of this marvel.
The boat is equipped with numerous sails, 2 gennakers, code 0, staysail and storm jib.
Instrumentation NKE, on-board computer equipped with Adrena to assist us in navigation plus the
boat is equipped with a solar panel and increased alternator to ensure independence
energy for on-board instrumentation without having to sacrifice comforts such as the
fridge always on.
