    A 3-day course with a lot of experience gained. The weather wasn't favorable for long sailing trips for the first two days, so our fantastic skipper had us practice a lot of arrival/departure maneuvers – always useful no matter what! We even had a real rescue of two people who had capsized (yes, rough weather…). The team is great, the boat is superb, in short, a well-deserved 5 stars.
