SKS training trip in the Mediterranean Sea

Our big sailing trip in the Mediterranean is ideal for training and collecting miles (approx. 300 nm).

The port of departure will probably be Pula in Croatia.

Arrival and departure will be private. The trip starts on Saturday, 22.03.25 at 17:00 and ends Friday, 04.04.25 late in the afternoon, an overnight stay on Saturday, 05.04.25 on board is possible.

The trip takes place on modern cruising yachts from 12 to 15 meters in length. Depending on the size of the boat, there is room for six to ten people on board. Of course, you will live on board, and for the night you can choose between excellently equipped marinas, picturesque fishing harbors and romantic anchorages.

Each yacht has kitchen facilities, so the crews usually cater for themselves on board. The fleet consists of several boats, which operate independently of each other.

The boats are led by a skipper who, for safety reasons and to ensure even more intensive training, is assisted by a second experienced sailor as boatman/woman.

In general, no previous sailing experience is required for participation.

The SBF-See is a prerequisite for the SKS examination.

Duration: 2 weeks from 22.03.2025 to 05.04.25 (with the opportunity to take the SKS practice exam)

Costs: 1190,-/1340,-/1500,- plus on-board cash, travel and examination fees
