The school is a continuation of a long lasting service on behalf of a sailors’ team, who besides sharing a great friendship, also share their common desire and love for the sea! A sailing school has to, harmonically, pass on knowledge and the love for the sea, while offering ideas and propositions to its students regarding their sailing future. This is our philosophy!
