Before your course begins you will be invited to an introductory meeting in Copenhagen, where you will have the opportunity to meet and talk to the other participants on your course and receive any relevant information / course materials you require. We will also use this meeting to order supplies. This way ensuring that what is required is delivered to the boat, prior to your course.
Course Start:
The course starts at 12:00 on Saturday at the prearranged location in the harbour of the Bay of Palma, (Bahía de Palma) Mallorca.
When the boat is ready, we board, stow supplies and luggage and get ready to set sail. Once ready and everybody / thing is on-board, we will sail out of the harbour and find an anchorage for the night. Normally the week is built up of theory in the mornings and practical exercises in the afternoon. Evenings/nights will alternate between anchoring at sea or going into a harbor, depending on wind and weather. We will endeavour to spend Tuesday evening in the harbour, so that there will be an opportunity for relaxing / sightseeing on Wednesday. Thursday we are again at sea, with the conclusion of the course Friday evening at approx19:00. Please note you can spend the night in the boat until Saturday morning if you so wish.
One or two weeks after your return home, we will arrange a theoretical and practical test in Copenhagen for The certificate of proficiency in yachting (Duelighedsbevis i sejlads for fritidssejlere).
