Every good sailor knows that a good voyage is measured not only by the skipper of the boat but also by the quality of the crew that sails with him.
To this end, we conduct the ISSA Crew member course at our school.
The crew member course – suitable for ages 8 and up.
The purpose of the course is to expose its participants to the sailing vessel called a yacht. We will learn together how to use the various systems that exist in the boat, how to tie knots, hold a rudder, raise and lower an anchor and be a helping force for the skipper.
The length of the course is 2 days.
Minimum course participants: 4
*For a private course of up to 3 people, the cost is 2000€ plus an additional 160€ per person for the certificate.
Course price per person: 500€
Assessment & certificate: 160€
****Passing the test is a mandatory condition for receiving the certificate****
Suitable from age 10 and up — for children, teenagers and adults with no previous sea experience. This is our most basic course.
Two days.
A motor yacht — students learn the boat’s systems and how to function as supporting crew, not as commanders.

The certificate is recognised by ISSA as proof of basic sailing training, and serves as a good starting point or credit towards the advanced skipper courses.
From age 10 and up, with no previous sea experience required — the course suits both children and adults.
No. It is a basic training certificate showing the ability to function as a crew member. To command a vessel on your own you need to enrol in one of the skipper courses.

Getting to know the vessel, using the various onboard systems, tying knots, holding the helm, raising and lowering the anchor, and functioning as supporting crew for the skipper.
