Port Balis Barcelona Spain RYA Day Day Skipper Training on board a new Dufour 405

Own boat tuition +34 972 662 494 on board a new Dufour 405 in Port Balis Spain included a full over view of the new yacht for our client. We gave the yacht a thorough inspection, set up the navigation equipment including Plotter, Radar, and VHF, which included inputting the new MMSI number and ensuring the user was a qualified SRC VHF Operator. There were many items on board that had not been fully explained which we were able to sort out including, full engine explanation, bleeding the system of air and water, changing spares (including which ones to purchase) and teaching our client how to maintain and repair whilst at sea. Some items were not obvious but we found them such as no holding tank forward (optional extra), reefing lines incorrectly labelled, lack of third reefing line, our client was told the plotter did not swival upwards in the cockpit which meant you had to lay flat to view it.... nonsense! We explained how and now it works properly!!!!! We ensured our client can now lift the liferaft and launch and lift the rear transom step correctly in order to achieve this. What started out as a RYA Day Skipper Practical course on one of our yachts prior to the clients new purchase is now concluding with RYA Own Boat Tuition. We cover everything from Practical RYA Sailing Tuition, RYA Theory and of course getting the most out of your yacht.
