Yes, the usual medical contraindications to physical activity and sports.

You must understand that maritime practice is associated with certain physical activities. You will have to move along the sloping deck, pull sheets and halyards while working with sails, go to the pontoon during moorings, pull up mooring lines, etc. Accordingly, you should not have serious health problems that can interfere with your physical activity.

Usually in an online group within 5-6 cadets.
Offline groups are slightly larger, up to 7-8 people.

An individual online training format is also available, but there is naturally a higher cost, if you are interested, check with our managers.

We provide our cadets with the necessary set of training materials.

No, but you will be given a recording of the session or the opportunity to work on the missed topic with another group.

After completing the basic course, we issue a skipper certificate from the European Association of Yachting Schools - ISSA Inshore Skipper.

These certificates give the right to manage a sailing and motor yacht up to 24 m, at a distance of up to 20 nm from the coast, in the daytime and at night.

In addition, at our school, you can upgrade your skipper license to the Offshore Skipper and Master of Yacht level , and apply for motor yachts certification.

Theory online 10 lessons, about 1 month.
Marine practice - one week.
Obtaining a shipper's certificate 1-2 months after the end of sea practice.

Depending on the chosen sailing practice package, Master Pro or Master, there will be 2 or 3 cadets respectively on the training yacht.

In the Master course version, passengers from among the members of the cadets' families can also be admitted to the yacht. They are not directly involved in boat management training. Passenger seats are reserved and paid separately, in addition, the passenger participates in the "ship's cash desk".

Yes, sea practice is carried out in any case. This is due to the fact that places on the yacht and air tickets are reserved in advance.

We usually use fresh yachts. In addition, not only the age of the boat is important, but its condition, cleanliness, as well as the fact that it is equipped and prepared specifically for sea practice. We select boats that best meet these criteria.

Yes, many schools are looking to sell you more time on the boat, but a longer course isn't always about quality or learning efficiency.

Our Master and Master Pro maritime practice programs are built in an intensive format. This means that we effectively use the study time and pay maximum attention to each cadet. So after a week of sea practice at Interparus with 2-3 cadets on your yacht, you will be better prepared to go to sea on your own than after a two-week practice at any of the competing schools with 5-8 cadets on a boat.

Sea practice is not a hiking trip, you will not have much free time for sightseeing. The route is chosen by the instructor based on the weather and the availability of places to train certain exercises that the group must master. But this does not mean at all that there is no place for pleasure in our campaigns.

Each Interparus instructor strives to make the training program as interesting as possible and show the cadets the most interesting places in their region. After all, you, as future skippers, will also have to draw up your own routes in the future, which means you must be able to make every day of your yacht trip exciting.

Yes, we practice this format of training, moreover, we support it in every possible way, since we consider family crews to be the most effective. Please contact our managers to clarify the conditions.

Ship's cash desk - usually includes additional expenses for the yacht: cleaning the boat and bed linen, fuel for the yacht, water, electricity and parking in marinas during the trip (except for the home marina). In addition, the team shares the cost of food purchased on the boat among themselves for all participants in the trip.

Also, in case of domestic damage on the boat, such as broken furniture or clogged toilets, the perpetrators pay for repairs. Although such situations are extremely rare.

Usually we send skipper certificates to cadets within 1-2 months after passing the exams. Such a "long" period is associated with logistics. After successful completion of maritime practice, we submit graduate documents to the European Association of Yachting Schools ISSA, these documents are approved and then sent to our French office. And from there they are sent to the Interparus offices in the countries of residence of the cadets, and already in the place they are sent by mail or handed over to them personally.
