MaréMotrice organizes long-distance and/or polar sailing courses. The crew is composed of the skipper and four to five crew members. These courses are dedicated to people who have at least a basic knowledge of navigation. They allow you to become familiar with offshore and/or ice navigation. On a boat made for that.

These courses are also a laboratory of navigation without diesel. The Knut is equipped with an electric engine, and all the energy used by this engine is made on board, in a 100% renewable way. This is how we should be sailing tomorrow, so why not start right now?
