FULL COURSE is 2 weeks, strongly recommended for those who want to start working soon and have little or no previous experience. However, we are flexible, and you can book just one week. For hostesses, only one week is enough.
We are happy to announce our Danielis skipper & hostess academy, which will take place in waters around Sibenik or Trogir, starting from 26th March 2022.
Our goal is to have 5-6 skippers, 1-2 hostesses, and 1 instructor on each boat. This way all the participants will meet real-life and job conditions on the boat.
Danielis skipper academy has been designed for those who want to work as professional skippers and it is necessary to gain additional skills and experience if you are interested to start working for Danielis Yachting this following season 2022.
Our Skipper academy is a practical course, meaning that the attendants will live on the boat for 1 or 2 weeks, and cruise around the islands while learning all nautical skills which will be the necessary introduction for the job. Academy enables our attendants to gain practical and theoretical skills of maneuvering and sailing, basics of skipper’s responsibility and social skills, safety and rescue at sea, navigation skills and maritime rules, basics of meteorology and many tips and tricks adding your experience and competence as a skipper.
Attendants of Hostess academy will be introduced with boat inventory, nautical deckhand skills to help the skipper, basics of preparing local food, cleaning the boat inside and out, serving drinks and snacks, organizing grocery shopping, and more.
Do you have what it takes for this demanding, but interesting and rewarding job?
For those who are ambitious and want to work as a professional skipper, a two-week skipper academy is a great start that will enable them to learn all the basic boat skills.
If you already have experience in navigation or sailing and want to upgrade your skills, our one-week training is the right place to be, proving your knowledge in maneuvering and sailing.
