How to Operate a Dinghy Safely

/by

Last week, NauticEd and crew went to the British Virgin Islands and chartered a Lagoon 450 from BVI Yacht Charters. We went down there to specifically get more content for our courses including video and pictures.

Here is a great video we shot for teaching crew members how to operate a dinghy.

As Skipper, you might be fully versed on dinghy operations but we can guarantee that your crew are not and the last thing you need on your sailing vacation is a dinghy accident.

You’re welcome to send this blog on to your crew.

Thanks go to BVI Yacht Charters for providing such an excellent experience. I highly recommend them as a charter company. If you’re wanting to go to the BVI for a sailing vacation, we can arrange at no cost to you the boat charter and give excellent advice on where to go and what are the cool hideaway spots.

Take the Bareboat Charter Course AND have your crew also take this course. You’re spending $5k on your trip. Make sure you make the most out of it.
