Cruise 25/2025 Valencia – Barcelona 04/07/2025 - 11/07/2025
Cruise description
The cruise starts on Friday at 5:00 PM and ends the following Friday at 10:00 AM, giving you time for a weekend in your destination port or a peaceful return home. You decide, you choose.
Our offer of a training cruise is characterized by the fact that the crew, under the supervision of our experienced skipper, will be able to realize their dreams of sea travel, prepare for independent route planning, work on watches and manage the yacht. Of course, in addition to the role of a trainer, the skipper takes care of the safety of the participants and takes over the helm of the yacht in situations that really require it.
