Navigation Academy
Practices to improve navigation
IMPROVEMENT PRACTICES
Improve your confidence and safety on board
The knowledge acquired in the courses of Spanish nautical degrees is mostly theoretical and not enough to acquire the skills and safety necessary to master a boat. Do you need several attempts when anchoring? Is the docking of the ship your most feared moment? Don’t you dare to navigate alone? Or can’t you enjoy the wind when it goes beyond 10 knots? Through these improvement practices, you will gain experience in sailing and have the opportunity to put your navigation knowledge into practice, gain safety and confidence on board and thus enjoy the sea. The practices are recommended for skippers or crew members with previous knowledge in their own boats, schools or qualifications.
