I completed my training with Mirko in an excellent way. He was always available, patient, and very flexible with scheduling the lessons. He guided me carefully and accompanied me to the exam, reassuring me that everything would go well — and it did. I felt fully prepared and everything went smoothly. I highly recommend Maggiore Lake Nautical School — truly professional!

I obtained my boating license with Mirko and I couldn’t have made a better choice. A knowledgeable, patient, and always available instructor. His explanations are clear and practical — I absolutely recommend him to anyone who truly wants to learn how to navigate.
Daria
I attended the Category A boating license lessons at Maggiore Lake Nautical School and had a great experience. The instructor is extremely professional, clear in his explanations, and uses scale models that make understanding manoeuvres much easier. Highly recommended school!
