"This is practice-oriented learning par excellence: this is how you learn passage planning!

Leon's balanced approach turned both the exercises and the subjects into interesting matter. As strange as it may sound, very often, we didn't wish to finish on time - especially as Leon's wealth of knowledge seems inexhaustible!

As challenging as the seminar in deed was at times, we learnt so much useful hand-on practical stuff. We left with a wealth of new knowledge for our practical sailing at home!

Comparing various points of view, constantly testing them against the reality of sailing, a flexible approach, safety aspects - all this is also part of the ‘hands-on’ seminar, which paves the way for good and safe sailing - and of course ColRegs again and again!

It was an interesting, instructive and very entertaining time in the company of friendly, inquisitive people who were now even more eagerly looking forward to the next sailing adventure."
