Completely new to sailing, I couldn't have dreamed of a better place than *** to learn the basic maneuvers and experience life on board during a weekend introductory course. Between the kindness, the teaching skills, and the overall great atmosphere, this weekend will remain a wonderful memory. I can't wait to do it again! :)

We had a wonderful time on Laurent's boat. Despite the lack of wind, we managed to sail all the way to Concarneau. During our stay, Laurent showed us quite a few maneuvers (route planning, hoisting and lowering the sails, steering, upwind sailing, and using the spinnaker). We even saw dolphins on the way back. We can't wait to go sailing with him again!

It was my first sailing experience and the weather was rainy and windy! So it was a challenging experience, but perfectly managed by Laurent, both in terms of the pace of the sessions (maneuvers at sea, breaks in port, theory) and life on board (meals, sleeping arrangements).
