Offshore Sailing Course

400+ nautaical miles of non-stop sailing. Punat - Palagruža - Lastovo - Vis - Jabuka - Punat

Take your sailing experience to a whole new level and hone your day & night navigation skills. Build confidence through non-stop sailing and simply enjoy a week of good time at sea.

Given the success of past courses, we decided to re-organize a unique offshore sailing course. Next date: 6.4.2024.

The idea of our Offshore sailing course is to show the beauty of life on a sailboat, away from the crowds, stress and strict rules.
So, you have sailed before and have some miles in the wake. Maybe you skippered a boat a few times for day sailing with friends & family or crewed in a few regattas. Now your ambitions are higher and you want to experience true offshore sailing. Join us!

Who is the course made for?

Offshore sailing is for everyone who wishes to improve their sailing skills, learn to live aboard a sailboat and to sail around beautiful distant islands. And for everyone who sailed before, liked it and want to go one step further.

After five ocean crossings, sailing 39.000 miles around the world in 28 months, being accepted in the International Association of Cape Horners and receiving the Qualifiers Mug Award from the Ocean Cruising Club for the most ambitious and arduous qualifying voyage, he is ready to share his experience in this unique sailing course.

400+ nautaical miles of non-stop sailing from Punat on the island of Krk, around distant Palagruža island (an island closer to Italy than to Vis), all the way to magical "island of bright stars" - Lastovo.
