The organization and development of the practice has been very good. Perhaps the ship could have been cleaner. The instructor (Alvaro) has been great, he has known how to manage all the situations and is a person of good communication, kind, polite and knowledgeable. It has left a lot of freedom of action. There were 11 of us in total, I think there were too many students for that boat.
Javier Naranjo –
All perfect. Both the organization, the boat, the practices, the instructor a 10.
Santi –
The practices went very well, despite the lack of wind, both the theory and the practice itself were excellent. David was very clear in his explanations, and made a weekend complicated by the weather, one of my best maritime learning experiences.
