With most yachts it is possible to charter without a license,  but of course, people who have not sailed for a long time or do not feel the capability to operate a yacht themselves can use a skipper’s help. We know several recommendable competent skippers, so please report such a need in advance and we will definitely recommend someone.

On each yacht there is a map of the entire trail of the Great Masurian Lakes. On some yachts, there is also an electronic map.

Of course, if you express such a desire, our skipper will discuss the map, recommend interesting places to visit and draw attention to the dangers or potential threats present on the lake.
