OLM offers Training for Mastering Raz de Sein

OLM Permis Bateau is a training organisation for boating licenses.

I’ve published more great videos of RIBbing in this renowned area.

Christophe is in Plogoff with a clear goal: to gain a better understanding of navigating the waters around Audierne and to confidently cross the Raz de Sein (Brittany, France) safely with his small 90 hp Guppy.

It’s a great moment of awareness and responsibility while mastering Raz de Sein.

By honing his skills in this challenging area, Christophe is ensuring that he can handle the strong currents and unpredictable weather conditions often found in this part of the coast.

His determination to navigate safely with a smaller boat like the Guppy shows not only his respect for the sea but also his commitment to mastering the craft of seamanship.

The Centaure 620 XL in Action

The video demonstrates the boat handling the turbulent waters in the Raz de Sein, a notoriously rough maritime area (videos of training sessions) aboard a Centaure 620 XL RIB.

Navigating the Raz de Sein, Ar-Men, Brittany in France, presents several challenges due to its geographic and environmental conditions.

The Raz de Sein is a narrow sea passage off the coast of Brittany, France, known for its strong tidal currents and turbulent waters.

These conditions can create dangerous navigation scenarios, particularly during bad weather or high tidal movements.

The area is also known for its rocky seabed, which poses additional hazards for vessels passing through.
