Dr. Bernhard Reichert works full time on improving weather and severe weather forecasts. He is not only a gifted weather interpreter but also a seasoned old salt of a skipper who has taken everything between the Main and the Caribbean into his wake.

In this unique combination, he first lays a very solid meteorological foundation in theory with you. It runs from global circulation and circulation cells to small-scale processes and everything that gets thrown at us. It takes in wind systems in the Mediterranean as well as dream destinations with flaws, such as the tropics. Sea state is also part of the course, from the smallest wave to the freak wave and its effects.

Then it's very quickly on to practical applications and exercises, where your active participation is required. You will plan trips according to the weather situation in the Baltic Sea and the Caribbean, learn weather rules for sailors and get to grips with the best weather sources on the internet: what can they do and where are the difficulties? By the end, you will have gained the confidence to make the right nautical decisions in any weather conditions. Promise! 😊
