Offshore Passage Planning

Great voyages are made on paper long before they’re made at sea. Whether you dream of crossing the North Sea or the Atlantic, this course teaches you to think like a true passage maker. Learn to read weather windows, plan routes across currents and tides, and prepare your crew and vessel for self-sufficiency. When land fades behind you, confidence comes from preparation — and here, you’ll earn it.
