The ketch "Rhea" in the Mediterranean.
Sailing holidays on a classic large yacht and at the same time gaining an insight into the world of yacht building - Sailing Classics is offering this combination for the first time this season.
On a one-week long-distance cruise in the Mediterranean from Corfu across the Ionian Sea to Malta in October 2026, a five-day cruise will be organised on board the 54-metre ketch "Rhea", which was built in 2017. "Yacht construction course for beginners" offered.
Yacht designer Klaus Röder spends four hours a day providing information on the basics of hull and deck design, construction methods and principles, and gives practical insights into real yacht designs. No previous knowledge is required.
The cost of the course is 490 euros per person, in addition to the price of the trip. An accompanying textbook is included. The minimum number of participants is seven, the maximum ten.
