Sail Design 1 + Sailmaking

What is a Bundle?

A bundle is a collection of courses we have wrapped up for you based on criteria such as complementarity, reinforcement, and/or enlargement of the subjects covered in each one.

Bundles also allow for the development of different learning paths by bringing together courses relevant to an area of knowledge related to Yacht Design. With bundles, we can guide our Students in their journey better.

They also enable us to offer the courses at a discount. Instead of enrolling sequentially in different courses, Students can now enroll in several simultaneously and benefit from a price reduction.

What is included in this bundle?

This bundle gives you access to the following courses:

• Sail Design 1
• Sailmaking

The course Sail Desing 1 aims to give a good insight into the various aspects of sail design and manufacturing to get a clearer picture of what’s behind the finished sails and all the work put into them. It will introduce you to the different aspects a sail designer must consider when designing a new sail. It is structured into several modules covering different aspects of sail design: rig, geometry, materials, aerodynamics, design phases, manufacturing, and sails inventories.

In the Sailmaking course, you will learn all that you need to know about materials, fibers, clothes, construction methods, sail lofts, sewing machines, the phases of sail manufacturing, production cards, quality checks, how panels are joined, how the edges are faired, patches, corner reinforcements, the boltrope, the leech line, the luff hardware, battens, and finishing details on the sails. By the end of the course, you will have a good understanding of sails, materials, sewing machines, and sail production.

Organization

The courses are video-based and on-demand and can be followed at your own pace. The courses in the bundle are independent: they can be done in parallel or sequentially by starting with the one you prefer. You can organize your learning to match your preferences, background, and availability.

Each course contains videos, quizzes, and downloadable documents and gives you access to the course’s virtual private classroom, where you can interact with the instructors and fellow students. Students completing a course will obtain the corresponding course Certificate. Each course issues its own Certificate.

Welcome aboard, and enjoy the courses!
