Our seminar aims to provide participants with an opportunity to refresh and enhance their knowledge of docking techniques for both catamarans and monohulls.
Through interactive training, participants will have the chance to update their techniques and improve their practices in safe and effective docking.
The seminar targets the revitalization of knowledge and practice under realistic conditions, and is suitable for all skill levels, making it ideal for any sailor wishing to upgrade their experience on the water.
Docking is one of the most critical skills for any sailor, as it involves the process of safely entering and approaching harbors or marinas.
This skill requires precision and good judgment in handling the vessel under various conditions, such as strong winds or other vessels in the area.

Enchancing Safety and Confidence Through Docking Seminar
It’s important to invest time and effort in learning and practicing docking because it will make you a more capable and safe sailor. At the core of our philosophy lies the belief that learning the correct approach to harbors is of critical importance. We consider the education and development of sailing skills as essential elements for the safe and effective management of a sailboat, particularly during the critical moments of entering or exiting a harbor.
