Yacht consulting

Independent advice on buying and preparing your yacht.

  • Independent purchase guidance
  • Inspection and assessment of candidates
  • Refit, modifications and equipment
  • Preparation for ocean passages and world voyages

When you buy, I map out your wishes and options, help you search for the right yacht and assess candidates for defects, equipment and sails, so you know what you are buying and what costs to expect. Planning an ocean crossing or a circumnavigation? I advise on modifications, maintenance and equipment so your yacht is seaworthy and comfortable. If you like, I handle the whole process, including surveyor and notary.

Private training

Personal sailing training, tailored to your level and goals.

  • Sailing and manoeuvring
  • Anchoring
  • Berthing and mooring
  • Preparing for a trip abroad

For beginners and experienced sailors: learn new skills, perfect the basics or refresh your knowledge. Also as preparation for a sailing trip abroad. Together we create a training plan that fits you.

Approach

  1. Introduction

    A no-obligation conversation about your plans, your experience and your yacht.

  2. Analysis

    I map out your wishes, your yacht or your skills clearly.

  3. Advice and plan

    Concrete advice or a training plan with clear choices.

  4. Execution

    You get going yourself, or I guide you until you're ready to set sail.

About Wytse

Experience on the water

Director of Zeilschool Pean since 2023, responsible for the sailing school, its instructors and safety on the water.

I grew up on board, have been a skipper and flotilla leader since 2007, and from 2018 spent two years sailing my 50 ft yacht Djito via the Mediterranean, the Caribbean, San Blas and the Galápagos to Hawaii. Today I live aboard Lauwers, a 1948 Amels-built fishing vessel that I converted myself.
