Manuel Folguera Mateo –
I reaffirm my evaluations, after taking the PER course, regarding your facilities, environment, etc. (The overall evaluation is very positive). Highlight the great professionalism of Raúl as well as the interest and camaraderie of Álvaro.
Manuel Rodríguez Mayobre –
From the first moment, I have noticed a very pleasant atmosphere. The facilities fulfill their purpose perfectly, and the teachers have a special gift for carrying out their not easy task. The boats always ready. For me, it has been lucky to meet you.
Manuel Folguera Mateo –
The overall assessment is very positive. For this reason, after obtaining the PER, I decided to prepare for PY with you.

Carlos Folk Palou –
He fet the IP practices and the highest assessment is excellent for the professor, for the embarkation and for the development of the practice.
Martí Gutiérrez Guxens –
The school, the facilities and the means available to them are correct. As for nautical tools, sailboats and so on, too. The teachers and specifically Mr. Raúl Serrano, who is the one assigned to me in the theoretical/practical course, I must say that as a professional and person he is a 7 star. This past weekend, we went to Mallorca (Sóller) to do the practice corresponding to the Yacht Skipper, Raúl was the Captain of the group. From departure to arrival in Barcelona, at all times I was convinced that everything was going to go well both in terms of safety and the teaching of the practice itself. As for the group, we have been united and all at the same time when making changes both in the tacks and in any other activity that should be done. Well, in addition to good teaching and above all being prepared to face deep-sea navigation, it has been an experience that I will never forget.
Albert Soldevilla –
