For whom: for those who wish to learn as much about sailing as possible as quickly as possible whilst having a great time. We start from the basics and work all the way up to intermediate level during this action-packed course.
Course requirements: no prior experience is required, but some experience in sailing (for example having been on a friend's boat sometime) is a merit.
Course goal: to be able to control a regular-sized sailing boat (with help of a crew which can be friends/family) in varying wind- and weather conditions. After this course you should be ready to rent or buy a boat and set sail for some great summer fun on the water! After the course you will have the possibility to take the examination for the inshore yachtman's diploma step 1+2 (Seglarintyg 1+2) with us.
