Arriving at the harbor, we heard a boatman shouting at his student. When we then read on the motorboat that his name was Andi, we thought we had lost the money for the double lesson. We were incredibly relieved when Andreas Rieser approached us; he was a total peace of mind. A completely different Andi. With utmost composure, Andreas showed us how to maneuver our own boat in the harbor facility in any weather and to our berth. For explanation: we already have Motorboat III. But a double lesson with Andreas to familiarize ourselves with a new boat, drive, and space is also time+money well invested for experienced Zurich sea captains. In two words, Andreas Rieser is SOBER and CALM.

I recently successfully completed the motorboat exam thanks to the professional preparation with my driving instructor Frédéric. He structured me and prepared me very well for the exam with patience. The organization of the driving lessons and the exam was very flexible and uncomplicated, and I was able to integrate them into my daily routine without any problems. Overall, a very good and smooth experience, and therefore I would like to thank you again here.

I had my sailing license and was very satisfied with LUNA Boatschool. I was able to schedule the course units online individually and easily, and I was well advised in the selection of the hours. The school boat was in perfect condition. Teachers Thomas and Tim were very friendly and thoroughly explained the training content, ensuring that I could safely perform the maneuvers and pass the exam. Additionally, I was provided with specially created materials containing important tips for learning the maneuvers and preparing for the exam. The lessons were adapted to the current weather conditions, and there were also exercises on how to handle a capsize. For my next boating license, I will once again choose LUNA Boatschool. Thank you for the great experience!

Thank you very much for the great sailing lessons at the LUNA Boat School! I really enjoyed the experience and successfully passed my practical sailing exam today. I would like to thank my first sailing instructor Pete, who taught me everything I needed to know about the boat and sailing. I started with absolutely zero and made rapid progress. A special thanks goes to my sailing instructor Tim, who was kind, competent, patient, skilled, relaxed, and friendly. When I was nervous (which happened often), he guided me step by step through the maneuvers until I felt confident. He is a great sailing instructor! Many thanks also go to Thomas, who sailed with us a few times and also taught me for several hours. All the teachers who worked with me have worked very hard to ensure that their students learn properly and safely, and have guided us gently when we made mistakes – always with kindness, encouragement, and patience. Many thanks also to Ms. Richter, with whom the communication was very pleasant; she always kept perfect records and stood by us with advice and help when needed. I can highly recommend the LUNA Sailing School! I am very glad that I took my sailing certificate there. Thank you very much!

If you are looking for a driving instructor who is patient, reliable, professional, punctual, one for whom 90 minutes really is 90 minutes, who shows you all the tips and tricks you need for the exam and for further self-driving, then there is no other option but to learn from Frédéric. Many thanks, dear Frédéric ☺️

I did my boating training at LUNA Boatschool and can only highly recommend it! I would especially like to highlight instructor Fredi; he is patient, explains everything in a clear way, and ensures that you always feel safe and comfortable. His calm demeanor and humor make every lesson enjoyable, and at the same time you learn an incredible amount. Thank you, Fredi, for a great time; I couldn’t have asked for a better experience!
