We will leave Port Olímpic to learn the basic fundamentals to start sailing. At all times they will be accompanied by a professional skipper and will learn the function of each rope on a cruising sailboat as well as the maneuvers to raise and lower the sails.
After leaving port, we will sail without a motor, we will understand what each rope is for, how the wind passes through the sails and we will learn to trim with the use of the winch for each wind direction. We will make various course changes to practice tacking and jibing maneuvers.
