FAQ
How do I access the course?
Through Bright Trip. You need to create an account on the platform to access the videos.
Will I be ready for the boat life after I take the course?
Nearly! You will have learned the basics, so you’ll be ready to head out and buy your first liveaboard boat. However, you’ll need to learn how to plan passages and how to make sailing your lifestyle. That’s what part 2 and 3 of the course are for!
Do I get a certification at the end of the course?
Nope. We are not part of an educational body, so if the country in which you live requires a certification to sail your home waters, you will still need to pass the test for it.
