Navigation Academy

We provide high quality training by adhering to the RYA standard and by merging the Royal Navy maritime tradition which the Sea Cadets Corps are based on.

Our skipper has spent many years sailing for pleasure and as an instructor on Lake Como and he has also been cruising on the Mediterranean and racing in the Irish Sea and North Atlantic.

Major events that our RYA Instrucotr took part in are the Round Ireland Challenge on 72' (22 m.) organised by Sir Chay Blyth ,the Cervantes Trophy, Channel Race and the Fastnet 2007 all on Bénéteau 40.7' (12.5 m.). Also sailed at the Sao Paulo Yacht Clube on Guarapiranga Reservoir.
