Building experience
It takes more than just sailing miles
More than empty miles
It is entirely possible to have thousands of miles under your belt, but would you be happy being in command of a boat when the wind picks up and you need to berth? Perhaps the pure number of miles isn't the metric to be counting.
XP at Sea aims to give you meaningful experience. Think of it as "more bang for your buck".

Take control of your development
Sailing is an incredible sport which allows you to go down so many routes. You can explore amazing coastlines worldwide. You can learn every technical detail to maximise your yacht's performance. Of course, many take sailing to competitive levels through racing, recreational or otherwise. The bravest travel to far flung corners of the Earth to see wonders from the seas and oceans.
Once you have been sailing a little or reached RYA Day Skipper level, what comes next?
Planning
XP at Sea helps you plan your trip from the outset. From basic travel and logistical assistance to and from the boats, to meal planning and goal setting.
We are here to make your sailing week as hassle free as possible so you can get the most from your experience with us.
A confident Skipper
Operating the vessel is just the beginning. How to prepare for trips to sea, and managing the boat and crew are essential skills that can be developed like any other.
XP at Sea gives you hands on experience of all those elements with helpful advice should you need it.
Theory
You may have done a fair bit of the sailing theory, but how often have you used it for real?
We will give you the opportunity to practise the real-world version of tidal planning, resource management, weather forecasting and route planning.
