The cruise

A 1st experience absolutely brilliant 😊 We had a total satisfaction as well at the level of the training as of the agreement between the participants. As for the discovered places, it was only emervement. We have only one hurry: to do it again!

The skipper

Fabien, our trainer, is a very experienced person, with a high technical level, pedagogue and very patient 😉 He is a passionate person, animated by the sea, of whom we feel that he has pleasure in sharing this knowledge (rich and varied), without ever appearing superior. Of a great humility. No need to have dealt with other trainers, to realize that we were very lucky that he was ours. A very nice person.
