Liveaboard training
and sailing courses
The key to a successful blue water cruising project lies in careful preparation. We offer a range of technical and on-board sailboat training courses that will give you the autonomy and peace of mind you need to enjoy your sailing to the full.
Self-sufficiency: setting off with complete peace of mind
When you take delivery of an Allures monohull, you’ll receive five half-days of onboard training to help you get to know your boat. You have the option of extending this hands-on training with more liveaboard sailing courses with our specialist Allures skippers, either for your first trips out to sea or according to your needs throughout your project (circumnavigation, Atlantic crossing, etc.).
Our tailor-made sailboat training courses for Allures owners
Based in the Loire-Atlantique region on France’s Atlantic coast, Escale Formation Technique (EFT) is a member of the Grand Large Yachting group offering Allures owners a range of liveaboard sailing courses tailored to their needs (navigation, theory, weather, etc.).

- fill in technical gaps,
- update your electrical knowledge,
- take a calm approach to managing medical situations,
