Sailing Academies for kids
At our sailing academy there are available introductory and advanced courses in Optimist & Laser 4.7 dinghies, conducted in groups by certified sailing instructors.
The Optimist sailing academy is offered to for kids from age 7 (basic swimming knowledge is required) to age 15.
The Laser 4.7 sailing academy is offered from age 15 and is a popular option for young sailors leaving the optimist class due to its age limit.
The introductory program in both dinghies has a duration of two hours at each class, and meets two to three times a week. It includes learning of skills, sailing theory, nautical knots, reading the wind, sailing and safety rules etc.
After completing a sufficient amount of time in the introductory program and with good comprehension and usage of sailing skills and theory, the athletes move on to the advanced program.
The advanced program requires longer time of training at each class and with more specific training, and learning of rules in sailing races in order to participate.

The Open Sea Sailing Academy is offered for adults that wish to have a complete education in sailing with a sailing yacht in order to use for enjoyment with vacation etc or for participating in open sea sailing races.
The basic course lasts two months during which students meet once a week (usually on Wednesday afternoon) for theory lessons and one day during the weekend for practice with the academy’s sailing boat.
After full completion of the courses, written examinations take place and with good completion you are granted with the “Certificate of Open Sea Sailing Skipper”.
Advanced courses are available for sailors with Certificates that offer the chance for more practice in the skills of sailing.
