On a superbly equipped and spacious sailing yacht we depart from Palma de Mallorca for an SKS training trip in the Balearic sailing area. On request, the SKS practical examination can be taken on the last day.

The departure and final port of our trip is the yacht harbour in Palma de Mallorca.

We combine an instructive practical trip with intensive manoeuvre training in one of Europe's most beautiful sailing areas. Our focal themes: coming alongside and casting off under engine, setting, furling and reefing sails, heaving to, sailing different courses (close-hauled, beam reach and broad reach), tacking and gybing, man-overboard manoeuvres under engine and under sail, correct use of lines and knots, technical briefing on engine, electrics and gas system, as well as anchoring manoeuvres. We will cover approximately 180 nautical miles during our trip. Also suitable as a mile-building trip.

Services included: one-week SKS practical trip Mallorca with examination preparation, overnight accommodation in double cabins, mile confirmation, trip briefing, SKS examination opportunity by a DSV examiner
Not included: ship's kitty (provisions), as well as own outward and return travel and optionally DSV examination fees.

The trip is also excellent for collecting qualifying nautical miles for Sportküstenschifferschein (SKS), Sportseeschifferschein (SSS), Sporthochseeschifferschein (SHS), Schweizer Hochseeschein, Österreichischer Austria FB2 and FB3, RYA Yachtmaster Offshore and for intensive training at the same time. On request, the SKS practical examination can be taken at the end of the trip.

The experienced skipper is both RYA Yachtmaster Offshore and RYA Cruising Instructor, holds all German sailing licences and has been successfully active as instructor and skipper for many years.
