The days run from 9:30 AM to 4:30 PM in Nieuwpoort on a JPK 110, an ideal sailboat for learning. We form small groups to ensure everyone can actively participate in the lessons and ask questions.
No, you don’t need any experience to participate and to enjoy your sailing day. You will be accompanied by an experienced skipper who is used to sail with beginning crews.
Yes, all crew members will have the opportunity to participate to the different sailing maneuvers, including steering and sail trimming.
No. Sea sickness also hits sailing champions and it does not stop them to sail around the world. Seasickness can be prevented or limited by various means, such as wearing warm and comfortable clothes, staying outside to look at the horizon, eating and drinking (water) regularly, etc.
No. We provide the safety gear such as life jackets. Just check out the weather forecast the day before and make sure to dress comfortably and to wear a raincoat and appropriate shoes (with white soles). Depending on the weather, we will also provide you with sailing pants, and we have some spare jackets for you.
In general, there is no bad weather, but only bad equipment. However, should the weather really be too bad, we always foresee a second date.
