Our courses in Sweden are based in Viggbyholm, Täby just north of Stockholm.
There we have our sailing center and there we have our boys and boats. Sailstar arranges sailing courses in sailboats,
in smaller keelboats (22 feet, 6.5.m) and in our large sailboat Operah, a Beneteau 50 (50 ft, 15.5 m and about 16 tons of displacement).
The courses give you Sailing certificates 1 and 2 according to NFB.

Basic courses in sailing, dinghy sailing where you get the best feeling for pure sailing.
We sail in secure, safe and modern single- and doublehanded sailing dinghies. Three and four day basic courses.
The location is Viggbyholm, Täby where we have our sailing center. The sailing arena is Stora Värtan,
a great place to sail with open but protected water. It is easy to get to Viggbyholm, either by car or by bus/train.
As you learn to sail in dinghy,
you learn sailing from scratch. You feel when you're wrong and you get a lovely feeling when you sail right!
The dinghy courses run parallel to the courses in the smaller sailboats.
The dinghy courses give you Sailing Certificate 1 according to NFB (supplement).
When you have taken your course it is possible to practice dinghy sailing on weekday evenings (6-8.30 pm) Read more.
Sailing courses, basic courses three/four days where you learn how to sail in a smaller sailing boat.
We use our brand new Aira 22, which we have three of, for these courses. Small enough to give you a good sailing feeling but big enough to learn how to handle
a sailing boat. There are keel boats so you won't capsize.
You will learn how to sail, handle a smaller sailing boat - manouvering, docking, anchoring, navigation, give-way rules, trim.
The courses validate you to get Sailor diploma 1 and if you have 1 and Yachtsmans certificate also Yachtsmans diploma level 2 according to NFB.
(Seglarintyg 1 och 2, krav Förarintyg för att få Seglarintyg 2). Sailor diploma is optional.
