Matthias explains perfectly the maneuvers that must be carried out on any boat. Matthias ensures that the nautical day passes in a relaxed atmosphere, taking into account the necessary safety measures. 16 hours of very enriching practice.

Despite some small computer problems, everything was very correct. Matthias, the teacher, making the 1st day enjoyable with the entire presentation of the theoretical part. The rest of the days, we had fun practicing in the simulators an endless number of possible real situations, to be able to face them safely, if necessary, in navigation.

In general terms, the school is exceptional. The professionals who work there are very attentive and their willingness to help is appreciated. Regarding the boats, the fleet could be improved. I understand that there are many boats and that they are used daily, but better maintenance would be appreciated.

A great experience! It is advisable to do the PER Motor practices at Escola Port. We have done them on the Artimó, which although it is a few years old, is a sailboat that has behaved well, even in adverse sea conditions. The skipper, Matthias, a charming teacher, who has captained the ship with a good dose of good humor, but maintaining the seriousness and respect that we owe to the sea. A pleasure to learn navigation with him and with my fellow travelers. I hope to find a space in my agenda to repeat, but this time, with Sailing practices. Bon vent and oratge, and sea for sailing!
