Sailing along the Maltese coast, we’ll fish while the boat is moving, trailing lines behind us and learning how to catch fish under sail. At the same time, you’ll keep exploring the secrets of sailing—trimming the sails, feeling the wind, and steering the boat as we cruise through some of the most beautiful bays.

Discovering, learning, and practicing the basic maneuvers like tacking, jibing, man overboard (M.O.B.) drills, and adjusting the sails. Spending hours at sea to gradually reach a point where decision-making becomes automatic, and developing your senses—feeling the wind direction without instruments, spotting incoming gusts, handling waves, and much more. It's about building a kind of knowledge that only comes through time spent sailing.
