Sailing vs motorboat certification options
I am planning to start my maritime journey this season, but I cannot decide whether to focus on sailing yachts or motorboats first. My main goal is to earn an international ISSA license that covers basic coastal navigation. Can anyone recommend sailing schools that offer flexible training programs on both types of vessels with experienced instructors?

The choice mostly comes down to whether you prefer the quiet pace of wind sailing or the speed of a motorboat. You can take a look at https://www.norinohi.com/home-eng where they outline preparation for international licenses across different boat types. The key is finding patient instructors who spend plenty of time practicing marina docking maneuvers with you, as that is always the trickiest part for newcomers.
