If you have attended sailing schools before and are not impressed with your instruction then be refreshed by our enthusiastic and well trained instructors.
Allabroad has a large range of instructors at its disposal.  Each have their own particular strengths but all have the skills and experience to teach you with patience and skill.  They have been trained in the latest methods of teaching and their enthusiasm keeps the course interesting and exciting.
Allabroad has always provided first class instructors and has a wealth of skills at its fingertips.

Yacht quality.

The yachts used by Allabroad are solely used by Allabroad and are not contracted in from other schools. This is how Allabroad keeps up the quality of the yachts to the required standard.
Our yachts are subject to independent spot inspections in order to maintain our high standards.

Safety requirements.

 We use the British coding standard of the MCA for coastal use up to 60 miles offshore.

This means the boat is allowed to operate legally up to 60 miles off shore.

It is very important when doing any sort of charter or sailing course that you check the yacht and skipper are legal.

To check if a yacht you are chartering or doing a course on is coded for the use it is being put to contact the RYA or the MCA

Requirements for RYA Instructor qualifications.

 A RYA cruising instructor is qualified to instruct up to Day skipper level. Any level above this and a RYA Yachtmaster instructor is required.
With any sail training centre students should make sure they are being taught by an instructor qualified to teach to the required level.

RYA Theory Courses regulations.

Theory, for an RYA certificate, can only be taught using a approved distance learning method by a school recognised to teach them or in a classroom by a school recognised by the RYA to teach theory courses.

Tidal Waters.

Gibraltar has a Mediterranean climate and the tidal waters required for tidal certificates.

No where else in the Mediterranean Sea can this be found.

Lost sailing days.

There are rarely days lost through inclement weather and sailing is rarely spoilt by lack of wind.

Gibraltar bay is sheltered so on those days when the wind is strong we still have good conditions for sailing.

This makes Gibraltar one of the best choices for a sailing holiday and course.

"Twenty years from now you will be disappointed by the things that you didn't do than the ones that you did do.
So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbour.
Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore, Dream, Discover".
