Ce que couvre cette vidéo

A Swan 47 named Saga offers crewed offshore passage-making instruction out of Halifax, Nova Scotia, covering the full range of bluewater sailing skills. Instruction centers on weather forecasting — reading synoptic charts, interpreting GRIB files, and anticipating how the boat will handle changing conditions — combined with passage planning.0:51 Crew members stand watches and participate in sail handling, coastal and offshore navigation, safety procedures, heavy weather tactics, and cooking aboard.1:17 The program targets sailors at multiple levels: first-time offshore voyagers, developing cruisers, and skippers building command confidence.1:32 The approach is hands-on and passage-based rather than classroom-based, with all learning happening on working passages. Halifax Vessel Traffic Services radio communication is demonstrated, with the skipper identifying the vessel by name on VHF.1:44
