Pick up of the boat on the trailer is near Leuven (Belgium). Sailing certificates are not needed. But they are recommended to have. The fun and nice special part on this boat is you can trailer it whereever you want to go. Not stuck on only one location. Dutch and Belgian coast is 1,5 hrs driving. Dutch Wadden sea is 3 hrs driving. France (Honfleur near Le Havre is +- 4,5 hrs driving with the famous Etretat around the corner to sail at). Or behind Normandy (Saint Malo an further). If you would take the boat for a week or longer. Even the south of france is a possibility. It has a swing keel meaning you can go in very shallow water, can beach it and put it dry on tides to even sleep on then. Minimum draft, with the keel lifted up, is about 0,38m. What is very little to almost nothing. Boat arrangements: Furling in boom main sail. Very easy and fast to use. Furling jib for high winds. Furling genoa for low winds.
