Tying your first bowline knot feels impossible… until one day it doesn’t. ⛵️ I still remember how awkward my hands felt when I tried it the first time. But with practice — and good mentors — it became second nature.. like doing it blindfolded😎 I’d like to invite you to my Sailing School, where we learn all the basics and skills you need — from navigation and knots to safety and docking. Not just to “get a license,” but to one day take your friends or family on your own trip, explore new places, and feel the freedom of being the captain. 🌊✨ 📖 *Theory Course* starts September 2025 (online) ⛵️ *Practice Week* → November 1–7, 2025 (Mallorca)
