Improvement by Training
Richard, traveled to Saint Alban de Roche (F) to familiarize himself with wave crossing techniques on February 1, 2020 in the Raz de Sein (Brittany).
He has held a boating license since 1992 and he has a RIB (Rigid Inflatable Boat). He therefore has a certain mastery of the boat, of the management and of the trim.
He questioned himself to do this improvement training in rough seas in order to feel more at ease in the analysis, the know how on decision-making as skipper.
FYI, Olivier uses a Ribcraft 5.85 powered by with a Mercury 200 V8.
