Sailboat rental

Certifications

To rent a bareboat (no skipper) at Sailingside, you must, as a Skipper, fulfil two conditions:

  1. Experience: sailing in the Azores requires experienced sailors, so you must have a relevant experience in sailing under similar oceanic circumstances;
  2. Licenses: you must have navigation licenses that qualify you as a skipper (International Certificate of Competence) or similar qualification and a radio operator license.
