Why a sailing holiday with skipper?
Why choose a skippered holiday? There are several reasons why a sailing holiday with skipper could be the ideal choice for your next trip. Below, we have listed the main advantages:
Fully relaxed
One of the biggest advantages of having an experienced skipper on board is that you do not need any experience and do not have to worry about the sailing itself. The skipper takes all the responsibility, from planning the route to docking and mooring in ports. Whether it’s a boat trip IJsselmeer or you’re sailing a little further afield, it allows you to take the helm and fully enjoy your holiday without any stress.
Safety
Sailing is a fantastic experience, but it can also be challenging, especially for those with little experience. An experienced and thoroughly trained skipper, together with his sailor, ensures safety and comfort. Whether it’s the weather, water conditions or navigating through crowded or shallow waters, the experienced skipper has the skills to make the trip smooth and worry-free.
Personal adjustments
A sailing holiday with skipper can be tailored entirely to your requirements. Do you want a relaxing trip with plenty of time for sunbathing and swimming? Or are you more interested in active sailing days and exploring different locations? The skipper can tailor the trip to your preferences.
What can you expect on this sailing holiday?
Depending on your destination, you will visit the most beautiful places. Explore the surroundings from the water, with plenty of opportunities to go ashore. A sailing holiday with a skipper not only gives you access to stunning destinations but also offers a comfortable experience as a guest crew member on board.
You may participate in all on-board activities as you are able, whether it is hoisting the sails, performing manoeuvres, navigating or steering the ship. There is plenty to experience, and under the guidance of the skipper and his experienced crew, you can learn a lot about traditional sailing
