Continuation, Level 2, 2 days

**Continuation Course — Sailing Certificate 2 (sailboat) **

Do you want to take the next step in your sailing? Our Level 2 course is aimed at those who have already taken a basic course or have equivalent knowledge (Sailing Certificate 1) and want to develop further as a sailor.
For two intense days we sail the NF -- Nordic Family Boat, a well-balanced and fast sailboat that provides clear feedback on trim and maneuvering. It is the perfect boat to train to sail efficiently, safely and with better control.

The course provides you with in-depth knowledge of trim, safety, weather and maneuvering, and corresponds to the level of Sailor Certificate 2 according to NFB guidelines.

Course content

During the course we work practically with:

• Sail trim and speed -- how to trim sail and rig for different wind strengths

• Boat balance and course stability -- how small adjustments make a big impact

• Security on board -- emergency management and man-over-table

• Ripping of sail — to reduce sail area properly and in a timely manner

• Weather and Wind -- understanding local wind phenomena and weather forecasts

• Maneuvering and addition — handle the boat safely in port and at dock
