The Sailing Practices have been very good for both David and his colleagues, a very friendly environment and in addition to learning we have had a great time. Greetings to everyone and we hope that soon we will go out together
Francisco Javier Navarro –
The organization and the teachers have been excellent for me. And I found the teachers to be most professional and the treatment with the students excellent.
Pol –
Yesterday I went to school for the first time and we were taught by Roca Marc, an excellent teacher, he answered all our questions with great professionalism and made us feel at home.
Marc Espona –
The ROCA practice went very well, we all practiced several times and we were able to see how to communicate from a radio station, both for the tests and to request a mooring or in case of emergency know how to act. Thank you very much Matthias!
PEDRO TORRES –
The rock 2 and rock 3 practices seemed perfect to me. Especially the instructor “MATIAS”
Francisco Rios –
Matthias has explained everything perfectly and clearly. A ten.
Gaspar San Jowe –
I think that for sailing practices, it would be better to do some theory, headings, position of the sails... at least advance it in digital format so that the students can understand it better. Starting directly on the boat complicates learning
Joan Fornes –
I am delighted. I think the dedication and good work of the instructors and their good vibes are great. Super happy with the school.
Sheddad –
I loved the sailing practices. The truth is that I didn't think they were so complete. Both monitors are super good. A couple of days there was strong wind and it was ideal for sailing in tougher conditions.

The experience I had this weekend, with my first sailing practice, is 10/10. Starting from the base that, arriving a little late due to the 8M demonstration, they waited for me at the dock and took me on the motorboat to the sailboat. Once there, we performed various maneuvers, with their respective very enriching explanations. The feeling you get when doing the internship with Escola Port is that you truly belong to a yacht club, it is more than just a company, it is the joint enjoyment of an activity, for those of us who love the sea.
