As a result of your training, you get an international license for operation a yacht with ISSA accreditation. This license allows you take yachts on your own in any country and sail them day and night.
You can book a yacht and go on vacation with friends on your own, or you can join our trips and try yourself as a captain next to an experienced instructor.
Yes, of course! The training includes online theory, where you will get to know the yacht in absentia with the help of our video lessons, and then you need to come to the sea for practice on a yacht, where you can work out all the learned skills directly on the yacht.
No, you cannot. The license training takes place during a special practice, where you work out the necessary skills of managing a yacht, interacting with the crew and ensuring safety, as well as figuring out how to build a route.
Yes, of course! While we are training, he/she will be able to relax on a yacht (or even work, usually there is a mobile Internet connection most of the day), and if he/she wants, he/she can get a sailor’s certificate (you don’t need to go through theory), so that you can take a yacht together in the future.
The license will be delivered to your address within 3 weeks after the end of the practice, and it will be available online in a couple of days, so you can immediately take a yacht.
You can rent a yacht (we will teach you where and how to choose a boat, and help you choose the most comfortable one), or join our captain regatta, where beginners sail on several yachts side by side, under the instructor supervision. You can join our regular adventures to see distant regions (for example, French Polynesia), and at the same time, see how another captain manages the boat and crew.

In addition, you need to lay down about 200 euros per week for food, fuel, marinas and restaurants. After successful completion of the practice, it will also be necessary to pay 200 euros for the production of an ISSA license.
