Advanced Sailing Short Program – To whom is intended for?

Advanced Sailing short program is intended for all enthusiasts who are in love with sailing, and use every free day to escape to the sea. The program will introduce hidden coves and scenes visible only from the sea.

After this program, you will want more and more. Sign up for one of the cruises on the Adriatic, eg sailing to the magnificent Dubrovnik!

We provide a brief overview of the knowledge and skills you will acquire in this program.

Preparing sailboat for the cruise

We can say that the sailboat is ready for a cruise when the boat is checked and the fridge is full. Consider all things you will need during the sailing.

Navigation

Navigation is the skill of taking a boat from one place to another. You will adopt the following terms and use in practice:

  • Geographical latitude
  • Geographical longitude
  • Measurement units in navigation
  • Orientation at sea
  • Sea charts

Sailing in course

If we want to sail from a point A to a point B and the wind allows us to do it without manoeuvring, i.e. we sail in a straight line – that means that we sail in course. You will repeat and perfect: luff up, bear away, tack and gybe.

Spinnaker

Very often this type of sail is referred to as an incomprehensible, complicated and expensive sail, very prone to tearing. All of that is true; however, it is also true that the spinnaker is used to increase the boat’s speed when sailing downwind.

Meteorology

Meteorology is the science which investigates weather and weather phenomena in the Earth&’s atmosphere. Term “weather” in its basic sense refers to the changes occurring in the atmosphere, from the sea level to the height of about 10 to 11 km above sea level.

Approaching the shore

One of the most important exercises at the advanced sailing course; out from marina in to marina, out from marina in to marina, out from marina in to marina.
