On board the AUBA, . It has been an exceptional experience, the Skipper/Instructor, Alvaro, is an excellent teacher, he makes sure that the entire team participates and learns, without laziness, he repeats the teaching of the maneuvers over and over again until he ensures that the entire team without exception is capable of doing them. The experience as an activity is also recommended, I was lucky enough to share the practices with an excellent group, something that in itself is enriching. Without a doubt, the fact that the school has good boats is also a positive point. Totally recommended and that I recommend. Excellent school, good boats and Monitors 10.

It has been an exceptional experience, the Patró / Instructor, Álvaro, is an excellent teacher, it is important that the entire team participates and learns, without command, repeats again and again the teaching of the maneuvers so that it is ensured that all the equipment is exceptionally capable of performing them. The experience with the activity is also recommended, we will have the great opportunity to share the practices with an excellent group, something that in itself is enriching. Obviously, the fact that the school has such boats is also a positive point. Totally recommanable and what I recommand. Excel·lent school, bons vaixells and monitors of 10.
Laura LG –
Many thanks to the entire school, for the dedication and enthusiasm with which they carry out all the practices and classes. Thanks to Raúl, for having the ideas so well structured and knowing how to transmit them in classes, to Sebastian, Álvaro... and Rodrigo, who is always willing... and to all the administration people. With them you will surely approve!!

Last week we did the PER motor practices with the instructor Miquel. He has a great ability to teach, great patience with everyone, he makes sure that everyone is integrated and does everything equally and always with a smile. On Saturday afternoon we had a bit of rough seas but just looking at him and seeing him calm and with that smile gave you all the peace of mind you needed. He answered all our questions. In short, I hope you are very happy with these practices and want to go sailing again... Of course, it is totally recommended.

I did the internship with Miquel and it was really great. The first day he explained everything to us in detail, reviewing the theory that we had done in classes and learning parts of the boat on the spot. The navigation experience was very satisfactory. I recommend doing the practice before the theoretical exam because it helps a lot.
Immanuel Hengstenberg –
I also liked the trip to the islands. If you combine a highly empathetic instructor with a lot of experience and a high-end boat in very good condition, you not only learn a lot but you can also enjoy this special trip. I can recommend this 100% course to everyone!!
Carolina Contesti –
I did the PER practices - sailing and motor - with different teachers and on different boats belonging to the school. Everything turned out excellent. The quality of the teaching from the teachers, the equipment and condition of the boats, as well as the cordiality of the administrative staff. I recommend it.
Arnaud –
I did the motor practices with Miquel, a great person, a great professional and an excellent teacher, not only does he know how to explain very well but he also transmits his passion for sailing. The teacher never stopped explaining things to us and the two days of practice were very useful. If you get this teacher you will be delighted!
jorge glez –
I have to say that these practices exceeded my expectations, due to the completeness, good manners and know-how of the instructor Miguel, I would recommend them without a doubt.
