TERMS AND CONDITIONS
If you wish, we will provide you with Helly Hansen and Forward WIP equipment adapted to the weather conditions and water temperatures. Good equipment has to do with your own safety and comfort. The water temperature can be relatively refreshing even in summer, depending on how you feel. Safety, fun and learning success are our top priorities! However, it remains a sporting activity, you can get wet and fall into the water. Sailing can be done in almost any weather (even in the rain).
We run all courses and offerings as long as safety permits. Only wind is needed. If there is enough wind, you can sail or foil without any problems, exceptionally of course not during thunderstorms or storms.
When sailing and especially while foiling, high speeds can be reached, which is why we have voluntarily decided to make helmets compulsory. Life jacket is required by law. The instructors as well as the sailing school cannot be held liable for any injuries as a result.
Our dinghies as well as the rental equipment are of the highest quality. Each user receives instruction on the proper use of the material. In the event of damage caused by improper use of the equipment or by gross misuse or disregard of the rules of the road contrary to the instructor’s instructions, the costs of repair, salvage and replacement will be charged.
So-called hydrofoils have revolutionised sailing and made it possible to fly above the water from around 8 knots of wind speed:
