Voilier sans permis, ce que dit Réellement la loi

⛵Can you really sail a 12-meter sailboat in France without a license? It's a question that sparks debate on every dock and often divides the sailing community. ⛵️ In this video, I interview Yann from the CAP 180 sailing school in Saint-Cyprien. Together, we shed light on French regulations: ✅ Is a license mandatory for a sailboat? ✅ Why is the rule different for motorboats? ✅ What about the VHF radio operator's certificate (CRR) and sailing abroad? 🌍 Whether you advocate for complete freedom or support mandatory training, this video provides you with the precise legal facts to sail with peace of mind (and within the law!).
