Per cominciare a fare ed a capire
Corso Base
To join a course you must be a member of Annje Bonnje (+€50).
È un corso basato sull’esperienza pratica diretta, sullo sperimentare personalmente. È dedicato a chi non è mai stato in barca o a chi possiede pochissima esperienza.
Si pone l’obiettivo di insegnare ai partecipanti le nozioni fondamentali della navigazione a vela, per farli diventare membri d’equipaggio in grado di contribuire alla manovra di un piccolo cabinato a vela.
Durante il corso verranno apprese e messe in pratica le nozioni relative a manovre ed andature, nodi, armo/disarmo della barca e sicurezza.

Frequently asked questions
If you can't find the answer you're looking for, contact us and we'll be happy to help.
- I have never been on a boat — can I still take part?
- Absolutely. Our sailing licence course and our beginner course (Corso Base) are designed for people who have never set foot on a sailing boat.
- Do you run sailing courses for adults, or only for young people?
- We run sailing courses for adults of every age. No previous experience is needed and there is no age limit — you can start at twenty or at sixty. Annje Bonnje's activities and courses are suitable for everyone and every age, and our cabin-boat courses on Lake Como are open to adult beginners starting from scratch.
- Do I need a boating licence to join a sailing course?
- No. You can join any of our sailing courses without a licence: you learn on board, with an instructor. The boating licence is a separate qualification, needed only if you want to skipper certain boats yourself — and in many cases it is not required even for that. If your goal is to learn to sail, start with the Corso Base, not with the licence.
- What should I bring with me on board?
- A packed lunch is a good idea, and you should always bring plenty of water. Trainers, comfortable clothes in layers (with a waterproof outer layer), a windproof jacket, a hat and sunglasses (ideally with a retaining strap), and sunscreen. Bring a buoyancy aid if you have one — if not, we will provide one for you.
- Do I have to become a member to take part?
- Yes. As an association, all of our activities are for members: on top of the course or cruise price there is the membership card (€50 a year), which includes insurance. It is not a service fee but your membership of Annje Bonnje — it lasts the whole year and also gives you access to the other courses, the cruises and the events at our clubhouse.
- Do I need a medical certificate?
- Yes. For insurance reasons you must provide a medical certificate for non-competitive sporting activity — ask your doctor for a "certificato medico per attività sportiva non agonistica".
- Are you a company?
- No. Annje Bonnje is a non-profit amateur sports association (in Italian, an "associazione sportiva dilettantistica", or asd). Everything on this site is organised by members and for members, and the prices shown cover the costs incurred and the teaching itself — they are a sharing of expenses, not a margin.
