Защо да избера Good Captain Sailing School?

At Good Captain, се стремим да предлагаме първокласно обучение по ветроходство и мореплаване, водено от опитни инструктори в подкрепяща и приятелска среда.

Гордеем се, че предлагаме една от най-утвърдените програми за ветроходно обучение на Черно море — базирана във Варна, оживен крайбрежен град, идеален за почивка и уикенд бягство.

Като една от малкото ветроходни школи в региона предлагаме обучение за напреднали и издават международно признати шкиперски сертификати (ISSA & BMA).

А допълнителният плюс е, че нашите курсове са значително по-достъпни от сходни програми в чужбина, което прави качественото обучение достъпно за повече бъдещи ветроходци.

От начинаещо до напреднало ниво ще учите с инструктори, които са не само умели професионалисти, а и вдъхновени ментори — известни със своята отдаденост, ясни обяснения и насърчителен подход.

За да резервирате мястото си, просто ни се обадете или ни изпратете имейл с курса, в който желаете да се включите, вашите предпочитани дати, and the брой участници които ще участват. След като потвърдим наличност, ще ви изпратим линк за попълване на онлайн формуляра за записване.

Не е нужно да чакате. Нашите курсове се провеждат в полуиндивидуален формат, така че не е нужно да чакате пълна група, за да започнете. Това позволява персонализирано обучение and гъвкаво планиране съобразено с вашите нужди.

Certification & Course Essentials

Your questions about daily life, gear, and practical details — answered.

What is the International Sailing Schools Association (ISSA)?

The International Sailing Schools Association (ISSA) is a global network of sailors, professional instructors, sailing schools, and charter companies. Its mission is to promote safe and enjoyable recreational sailing worldwide through a standardized, internationally recognized education and certification system.

Benefits of ISSA Certification:

  • Globally recognized certificate accepted by charter companies
  • High standards of sailing education and safety
  • Access to structured, high-quality learning materials
  • Expert instruction from certified professionals
  • Clear goals and skill development at every level of training

Once you complete your course, you’ll receive an ISSA Skipper Certification Card. This card includes your certification level, issue date, as well as your name, your instructor’s name, and their ISSA ID number. It serves as official proof of your sailing qualification and is recognized internationally.

The processing time depends on ISSA’s administrative procedures, but typically, your certificate card arrives within 30 days by post.

Each charter company has its own requirements for qualifying prospective skippers. While some may accept the ISSA Inshore Skipper certification or the Bulgarian 40GT license on their own, many will also request a sailing resume detailing your on-water experience.

The ISSA Inshore Skipper certificate demonstrates that you’ve completed formal training and passed a structured program based on international standards.

Charter companies typically consider several factors, including:

  • Your certifications
  • Sailing experience
  • The size and type of vessel you intend to charter
  • The location and conditions of the charter area
  • The qualifications of your crew

Your ISSA certification do not expire. And the Bulgarian 40GT certificate need to be reissued each 10 years with medical assessment.

However, if you haven’t been sailing for a while and would like to refresh your knowledge and skills, we’d be happy to recommend our Back to Basics course.

The right course depends on your experience level and goals:

  • If you’re new to sailing, start with our Discover Sailing session or Basic Crew course to get a feel for the sea and essential skills.
  • If your goal is to skipper a yacht, the курса ISSA Inshore Skipper or Bulgarian 40GT Certification is the best fit.
  • If you already have a license but need practice, our Back to Basics course is ideal for refreshing your skills.
  • Still unsure? Contact us, and we’ll help you choose the perfect starting point for your sailing journey.

It’s not mandatory, but doing some study before starting your Skipper course is highly recommended. It will help you grasp the material more easily and make it easier to follow your instructor during the practical sessions — giving you a head start and more confidence on the water.

Придобиването на сертификат за шкипер включва three key stages:

1. Придобиване на знания

2. On-water training

3. Финална оценка

The theory part is completed through independent study using our Skipper digital learning program, which отнема около 30 часа.

The on-water practice can be completed in just one week.

Our Skipper course is гъвкав и ориентиран към уменията, meaning you advance at your own pace. Once both you and your instructor feel confident you’ve mastered a skill, you move on. Need more time to practice something? That’s perfectly fine too. The goal is to ensure you become a safe, confident, and capable sailor, ready to enjoy cruising with ease and independence.

To become a certified Skipper, the minimum age is 18 years old.

However, younger sailors aged 14 to 17 can still join the adventure by earning the ISSA Yacht Crew Certificate, which recognizes competence and participation at the crew level.

We take a maximum of 4 students per yacht for our Skipper sailing courses. While our boats can accommodate more than eight people, we keep group sizes small to ensure персонализирано обучение and plenty of hands-on practice for each student.

Your training will take place along the coast of Варна, an ideal location for sailors of all levels. With its safe conditions and scenic coastline, it offers the perfect environment for both learning and enjoying the sea.

No, swimming is not required to participate in our sailing courses. However, being comfortable around water is recommended.

You’ll always wear a life jacket during training, and safety is our top priority on board.

Feeling seasick is common—especially for beginners—but don’t worry, it usually passes quickly. We recommend coming prepared with seasickness tablets or natural remedies if you’re prone to motion sickness. Our instructors are experienced in helping students feel comfortable on board. We’ll also plan regular breaks and calm sailing conditions, especially during your first days.

Most of our sailing courses run from 10:00 AM to 5:00 PM, with short breaks throughout the day. Exact times may vary slightly depending on weather conditions, course type, and group preferences. We’ll confirm your schedule before the course begins.

Yes! Whenever the weather and schedule allow, we often anchor in calm bays where you’ll have time to swim, relax, and enjoy the sea. We believe sailing should be both educational and enjoyable — so we make room for fun along the way!

A typical day depends on the weather and the training material planned. Some days may start earlier or finish later to cover essential skills. When conditions allow, we often have time for a swim or a relaxing break during the day. Evenings are free for you to rest, explore, or enjoy the seaside atmosphere.

We train on a popular cruising sailing yacht—similar to the ones offered by charter companies around the world.

Our training boat is a Beneteau Oceanis 331 (10 meters, 2003), designed for both comfort and performance. It can accommodate up to 10 people and features:

  • 3 cabins
  • A galley (kitchen) with a small refrigerator
  • Hot water boiler
  • WC and indoor shower
  • Deck shower for rinsing off after swimming

It’s an ideal yacht for real-world training and getting used to conditions you’ll encounter on charter trips.

Yes, absolutely. Our yacht fully complies with the Code of Practice for Small Commercial Vessels and meets all the safety standards set by the Maritime Administration and Coastguard. We inspect the boat before and after each course, and all safety equipment is regularly serviced to ensure everything is in top condition for your training and peace of mind.

Yes, the yacht is equipped with a toilet and onboard shower. When docked in a marina, you’ll also have access to shore-based facilities for added comfort.

Smoking is permitted onboard, but since space is shared with others, we kindly ask that you are considerate of your fellow crew members. Smoking should be done only at the back of the boat and downwind, and it’s always polite to ask for permission from others on board first.

Sailing is closely tied to weather conditions, and while we generally do not cancel lessons or offer refunds due to bad weather, we reserve the right to reschedule sessions if conditions are deemed unsafe. Your safety is our top priority, and we always adapt the training plan to match the weather while ensuring a valuable learning experience.

Please bring only soft bags — there’s limited storage space onboard.

☀️ For Summer Sailing:

  • Sunglasses
  • High SPF sunscreen
  • Lightweight, long-sleeved clothing to protect from the sun
  • A hat (preferably with a strap)
  • Sailing gloves
  • Towel

❄️ For Cooler Weather / Winter Sailing:

  • Warm layers (better several thin layers than a couple of thick ones)
  • Thermal underwear
  • Hat and scarf
  • Waterproof sailing gloves

Stay comfortable and protected — weather can change quickly at sea!

Please do not bring heels or hard-soled shoes. For safety and comfort onboard, we recommend:

  • Sailing boots (especially in cooler or wet conditions)
  • Deck shoes or
  • Non-marking trainers/sneakers

Footwear should provide good grip, be comfortable, and won’t leave marks on the deck.

Yes, you can bring your mobile phone onboard. However, we kindly ask that it is turned off or kept on silent during training sessions to avoid distractions.

Моля, имайте предвид: You are fully responsible for your phone and any personal belongings. The school cannot be held liable for any items that may fall overboard or get damaged during the course.

Имайте предвид, че носите пълна отговорност за повреда или загуба на мобилния си телефон — или други вещи — ако паднат зад борда.

Absolutely! We’re happy to offer персонализирано обучение on your own vessel. This is a fully customized service, so please се свържете директно с нас to discuss the details, availability, and pricing.

ipping is entirely at your discretion, but it is considered standard practice in the sailing industry to offer a gratuity as a thank-you for your instructor’s time and effort.

A typical tip ranges from 10% to 15% of your course fee, depending on your satisfaction with the experience.

Yes, that’s possible — but only if there’s an available seat on the yacht, as spaces are limited.

Your spouse can join as a guest at a 50% discounted rate, provided this is discussed and confirmed prior to departure.

Имайте предвид, че предимство имат активните курсисти, така че наличността може да варира.
