Nautical license within 12 miles

The nautical license within 12 miles enables the driving and command of boats and pleasure boats up to 24 meters in length and without power limit, within the territorial waters of a State, i.e. within 12 miles from the coast (about 22km) .

For the nautical license within 12 miles, the courses for obtaining it are carried out in two ways:

1°) TWO WEEKLY WITH FLEXIBLE HOURS

The course includes 8 theoretical lessons of 2 hours each and 5 practical exercises of 1 hour each, with time slots to be agreed on the basis of your needs.

2°) FULL IMMERSION

For those who do not have much time during the week to follow the course, our agency organizes intensive boat license courses which are held over 2 weekends, providing 3 days of theory, for a total of 24 hours, two Saturdays and one Sunday from 9:00 to approximately 18:00, with a lunch break from 13:00 to 14:00, plus a day (Sunday) dedicated to the practical part on the boat, including a theoretical review, from approximately 9:00 to 18:00._cc781905 -5cde-3194-bb3b-136bad5cf58d_
