Depending from the date and group in summer high season basic course could be held also on Beneteau Oceanis 311 in navigation mode with leaving on board .
- Advanced sailing course allows you to learn the fine adjustment of the sails as well as sailing with asymmetric spinnaker or just spinnaker. This level is important and will show you how it is great to use advance sailing methods in gaining more fun and faster sailing. The course is going on Firsts 7500 and Oceanis 311 in all seasons.
- Family sailing course has been designed for families who want to spend their holidays aboard and refresh the elementary skills of sailing; this course requires less physical efforts than it is needed for other program. Boat originally used is First 7500 and from time to time Oceanis 311 as well (depending from avilability of the boats) , there is also possibilty to live in shore accomodation in Trogir (ACI marina) during a course , school rooms DOMUS MARITIMA .

official examinations in Harbour Master Office. All in the purpose of obtaining the BOAT LEADER license, category B, by Croatian sea law. As it required by the law, we arrange examinations in the Port Authority in Split, every Monday during a course (in high season). Such program could be followed by extra and individual request from each student with extra cost of exam and detailed preparation for it. All have to be confirmed before and in advance with our booking office.
All is organised in extra time, out of ordinary program and immediately in first two days of school to achieve regular term to participate on exams in every Monday afternoon in
Split Harbour Master office. Such exam organisation is possible only during a high season, summer months. Such license is enough to charter all kinds of
sailing charter boats in Croatian waters (up to 54 feet).
For those who want more we have
regattas in which we participate. In regattas you
sail with the best Croatian skippers as crew members and you have a chance to participate regattas such as:
Adriatic Race, Mrdujska regatta, I
sland Vis Race, Barcolana, Round Jabuka Race, Christmas race and other? On regattas we participate on some of our Firsts 36.7 new Firsts 35 and 45s from our One Design fleets.
Ultra sailing school gives you the knowledge to sail on your own and to become a sailor that respects the laws of sea. Through the courses you will have a chance to meet other people that share the enthusiasm with you when it comes to sailing and gives you the opportunity to make your own crew.
Ultra sailing school invites you to join one of our courses that you are interested in
based on your own experience of the sea and we believe that we will together reach the final goal and that you will leave the marina on your own or with us on some other sailing activity.
