Sailing - Clinic and Stages

Clinic and sailing stages

Description
The goal of sailing stages is to focus on specific aspects which will be agreed in advance. Normally, the course is done on J80, but it is also possible to organize the stage with other boats. The sailing area is the northern and central part of the lake, where the wind conditions enable to enjoy the beautiful surroundings at the best.

Program
The stage is done in two different ways(*):
• Single-day (also on boats different from J80): the program envisions a first theoretical lesson and a sailing, which is scheduled according to the wind and meteorological conditions. The sailing area is the northern part of the Como lake (between Domaso and Menaggio).
• Two days (also on boats different from J80): it is the best solution for people interested in enjoying the sailing on one of the most beautiful lakes in Europe, together with the theoretical aspects. After a theoric introduction, in the first day the isola Comacina will be reached (isola Comacina is located in the west branch of the lake), with the overnight stay in an hotel. The following day we will return to Domaso. (*)It is possible to agree different modalities, according to specific requirements of customers.
We can arrange this and other services adding sport or cultural activities, and it reperesents a solution for groups and companies interested in high level team buildings. Clinic and stages are suggested for people that want to improve their sling skills under the assistance of expert trainers, on fast boats, in a wonderful place.
For groups and sailing teams, we can organize longer stay (3/4/7 nights) in Hotel, residences or flats, with practical and oral lessons, and professional trainers
