Training cruise for Inland Skipper Certificate MAZURIA LAKE 12-15 years

 

Training cruise for Inland Skipper Certificate - 12-15 years

The training cruise gives the participants the chance to get an Inland Skipper Certificate during the 14 day course. It is a combination of intensive training with active leisure in the form of a wandering cruise. The wandering character guarantees a substantial training and a nice spent vacation. The theoretical and practical part are done according to the guidelines of Polish Sailing Association and the course ends with an exam.

 

Programme:

During the day we train our participants in terms of maneuvering the yacht, sailing technique and first aid basics. In the evening, we organise classes covering theoretical aspects of sailing and advanced techniques, according to Polish Sailing Association guidelines.

 

We spend each night in a different place, combining the training with active leisure. We moor our boats in different places every day, which gives the participants the chance to fully explore and immerse themselves in the Masuria region. Sometimes these are wild, hard to reach places where we sing sea shanties by the campfire, other times these are the biggest cities where we play volleyball, football and explore nearby relics.

 

During the cruise you will not only gain the knowledge and technique necessary for the certificate, but also meet a lot of interesting people and spend some quality time exploring the beautiful Masuria region.

 

Application conditions:

 

• over 12 years of age
• good health, confirmed by a doctor’s signature (doctor available on site)
• confirmation of the ability to swim (parents’ agreement or other swimming ability certificate)
