Skipper Training & Speedboat Handling Course

Our Skipper Training is designed for guests who want to rent a speedboat and enjoy the freedom of the sea safely, confidently, and independently.

The training takes place in the morning on our modern speedboats and is led by an experienced local skipper. It is fully practical and hands-on, with clear explanations tailored to your experience level. After the training, you can continue your day trip on your own, applying what you’ve learned in real conditions.

What you will learn

  • Basics of speedboat operation and safety

  • Starting, steering, trimming, and engine control

  • Maneuvering at low and high speeds

  • Docking, mooring, anchoring, and parking in marinas

  • Navigation basics (buoys, routes, rules at sea)

  • Reading weather conditions and wind patterns

  • Safe behavior around swimmers, other boats, and coastlines

This training is ideal for:

  • First-time boat renters

  • Guests with limited experience

  • Anyone who wants extra confidence before going to sea

No unnecessary theory, only useful, real-life knowledge you need for a safe and enjoyable boating experience in Istria.

After completing the skipper training, the boat is yours for the rest of the day, explore hidden bays, islands, and beaches at your own pace.
