Everything has worked very well, Navarro is a teacher very dedicated to his work who creates a very good atmosphere during the navigation practices, which were also very instructive. The PNB radio practice in the classroom was perfect. As a point against, I only highlight the high student ratio (8/9), which means that 8 hours sailing translates into only 1 hour at most at the controls of the boat and only one docking-undocking maneuver (5 minutes). It will be necessary to contract once the PNB has individual port maneuvering practices.

The organization and professionalism are perfect. My only disappointment is about the navigation. which is actually going around on a boat, at minimum speed for 8 hours without any interest. But I guess it's the law.
