Good introduction to ocean sailing meterorology

Very useful and practical. Sometimes the audio quality is low.

Really interesting course to have a really good idea about what system can be expected on a round the world regata. Also really good material for local effects and tactics.

Curso muy interesante para planificar navegaciones a la vuelta al mundo. Guía práctica y bien explicadas de las condiciones meteorológicas reinantes en cada área en donde se desarrolla la BWR. Material didáctico muy útil que hacen más entretenido y fácil el aprendizaje de todos los contenidos.

Instructors did a great job introducing not only Meterology, but the basics of sailing equipment and technology for taking a boat around the world. Excellent!

Very interesting material, nicely explained. I have learned a lot from this course. Thank you!

Great info and clearly presented! Very usefull!

Great course for any aspiring navigator or anyone who wants to learn about weather.

But, a majority of the course is in Spanish but, there are subtitles.

The material was insightful and useful. Unfortunately it mainly covers the route for the Barcelona World Race and I was ultimately more interested in the weather patterns for the North Pacific. I think the overview of the weather (first sections) with the latter sections chockfull of examples were great and I better understand the weather systems in sailing terms on a broad base. Thanks!!

This is my first MOOC and it lived up to my expectations. The material covered was well presented by great instructors. That some of the lectures were in Spanish (which I do not speak) was not a problem. I would recommend this course for anyone interested in

Awesome course. If you're into sailing or meteorology there is nothing better. The amount of knowledge conveyed in this short course is immense, yet it's fun and captivating the whole time.

interesting course, sometimes the subtitles are not correct. But overall it is easy to follow. I had sometimes some difficulties to see the boats on the screen behind Marcel in the case studies.

Not only interesting, but a hula lot of fun to take. I felt in the race!!

Muy interesante! Seria ideal contar con los subtitulos en español para los audios en id

''No man will be a sailor who has scheme to get himself into a fence,for being in a ship is being in a fence, with the change of being overwhelmed.'' Said James Boswell in 1759. It's not good enough to become a sailorThis course telling us how to use winds when you on the sea surface.Thanks for the creators and all sailors teached us which kind of subjects the meteorology included.

I was hoping for interesting info about world weather. But the meteorological stuff is that concerning sections of the round-the-world yacht race route. Seems to be a class on what you would need to know to win this race safely. Some of the boating info is interesting. Also, it's largely in Spanish. So, if you are English speaking and like subtitles, then you are good to go.
