Some useful tips
for your trip

Before you start

Getting started

During sailing

  • Watch carefully the briefing and demonstration by our staff. Feel free to ask any questions that may arise.

  • Check the rescue and firefighting equipment.

  • Make sure you have at least one charged cell phone or 12volt car charger.

  • Be aware of weather conditions. Consult with our staff on the best places to visit depending on weather conditions.

  • Wear life jackets for children and passengers who do not know how to swim.

  • Lower the engine into the water, using the "trim down" button.

  • Make sure that all passengers are seated.

  • Make sure you have the "quick stop" safety rope on your hand.

  • Make sure that the leveller is in the vertical position, i.e. that you have neutral. Only then can the engine be started.

  • The captain must always take into account the sea traffic, the depth of the sea and the presence of bathers.

  • Do not go further than 2 nautical miles from the coast

  • Keep a safe distance from the coast and bathers. If you need to approach a shore, reduce your speed to a minimum and drop your anchor 20m before you need to do so to avoid damaging the propeller in shallow water.

  • Before anyone dives into the water, the skipper must ensure that the anchor is "caught" and the engine is switched off.

  • Keep a starboard course in channels and harbours.

  • Never pass under the bow of a moving vessel.

  • Do not use the anchor in deep water except when you can see the bottom. The rope you release should be about three times the depth.
