Dreaming of a sailing holiday in the breathtaking waters of Greece, Italy, Croatia, or other Mediterranean destinations? While the allure of crystal-clear waters and picturesque coastlines is undeniable, navigating unfamiliar waters and mastering Mediterranean mooring techniques can be daunting for even experienced boaters. In this article, we'll explore why training beyond ICC/ICP sailing certifications is essential for a successful Mediterranean sailing holiday and how David's expertise fills a crucial niche in the bareboat charter market.
The Mediterranean Experience:
Picture-perfect beaches, charming coastal villages, and azure waters await those embarking on a sailing holiday in the Mediterranean.
However, the unique challenges of navigating busy harbors, mastering Med mooring techniques, and understanding the Collision/Navigation Rules can pose obstacles for some boaters.
The Need for Specialized Training:
While many sailing destinations require International Certificate of Competence (ICC/ICP) certification, this standard may not adequately prepare boaters for the specific challenges of Mediterranean sailing.
Our Boat Training "Bridges the Gap" by offering specialized instruction tailored to the demands of Mediterranean boating, including Med mooring techniques, navigating narrow passages, and understanding the Collision/Navigation Rules which are barely covered in sailing schools.
