- Minimum number of participants per trip: 4 persons
Aim of a cruise and conclusion
Aim of a cruise
All manoeuvres under sail and under motor, safe watch keeping and navigation, weather observation, navigation at night, etc. are practised. During these training weeks, you will learn as a watch leader what tasks a skipper has to master and as a navigator how to guide the crew and yacht safely into the harbour.
Completion
After a few weeks of training trips (three weeks on average), you are well trained to take the practical BFA - FB2 (Befähigungsausweis Fahrtenbereich 2) exam. For this, you need 500 nautical miles and three night trips and three night approaches. The BFA - FB2 entitles you to sail between nearby ports along the coast on yachts up to 24m. Coastal navigation (FB 2) covers a range of 20 nautical miles measured from the coast. To be eligible for the practical exam, you also need to have passed a theory exam (FB2 seminar) taken within the last 2.5 years prior to taking the practical exam.
