On deck, we're sailing! Are you eager to sail the waters as a captain? Take it easy and get your Captain's license to sail inland waters and ride the waves at sea. And you can do it both on a motorboat and on a sailboat.

The course includes a theory part to obtain a VMP license (small craft pilot), theory to obtain an MPZ (international sea license) and theory to sail a sailboat.

This also includes a practical skills test on both a sailing boat and a motorboat. Once you have completed the test in front of representatives of the State Navigation Authority, which is also included in the package, you have your boat captain's licence in your pocket and can go wherever you like on the water.

Briefly about the different types of licences

  • VMP - with a Small Vessel Master's licence you can guide recreational vessels up to 20 m in length on inland waterways in the Czech Republic and abroad.
  • MPZ - extends the VMP licence and entitles you to guide recreational craft up to 20m in length within 1 nautical mile of the coast. Winds must not exceed a Beaufort Scale 4 and wave heights must be less than 1.2 m.
  • VMP and MPZ permits are valid for both sailing and motor boats.
