Skipper training
A good preparation is half the battle
It is often thought that a boat license is required to rent a yacht. However, this is not the case. Our motor cruisers are practical vessels that are easy to handle. The length of the ship has a maximum of 15 meters, so that a boat license is not required.
You do not need to have sailed a meter in order to have a boating license in the Netherlands. We attach more value to the sailing experience you have gained before you are allowed to sail on ships of 10 meters and larger. For beginners we recommend choosing a motor yacht up to 9.50 meters.
You will receive a brief skipper training upon embarking; Then you will be pointed out in practice what you should pay attention to while sailing.
Especially if you have no sailing experience, it is important that those on board are also involved in the explanation and preparation. Especially when mooring, tying knots and reading maps.
We appreciate it very much if you have prepared yourself with the traffic rules on the water before embarking (more on https://www.varendoejesamen.nl/downloads).
REMARK! If the weather does not allow it, the explanation and brief skipper training may be postponed to a more convenient time.
There are almanacs and navigation charts on board, which you can use to determine your own route. The almanac provides information about bridges, harbours, telephone numbers and facilities. You can download the navigation charts athttps://waterkaarten.app/ . This is ideal to combine with the paper navigation charts.
