SAILING COURSE INLAND WATERS (A-LICENCE)

LICENCE TO SAIL


This is the advanced course which follows the basic course. In the theory lessons we teach you all you have to know to attend the exam for the "BA-Binnen" (Inland waters licence - formerly known as A-licence). In the practical aspect you learn manouvers on dinghys which may also be used for yachts and keelboats- the inland waters licence gives you the permission to lead sailing boats of any size on inland waters aswell.

The sailing licence for inland waters

The inland waters licence (A-licence) is the equivalent of a driviers licence for sailing boats of any size on inland waters. In this course we practice manoevres, perfect our sail and weight trim and carry out what we have learned in theory. In this course you will learn how to do a yacht jibe and the "person over board"-manouvre. With the A-licence you also have the ability to rent a yacht with your friends. It is an optimal course to refresh your knowledge aswell!
