Stéphane Narvaez,
YOUR CRUISE SAILING COACH
ECCO offers personalized coaching with Stéphane on a liveaboard sailboat, in accordance with FFV teaching standards, allowing participants to gain autonomy, knowledge of their sailboat, safety, and enjoyment of sailing, whether for a first experience, to improve their skills, or to prepare for a personal project (cruise, delivery, rental, boat purchase, round-the-world trip, expedition, etc.). Depending on your project, we will customize a program on your sailboat or on our 11-meter monohull sailboat.
