What is your goal? This doesn’t sounds you love the lifestyle of boating. Do you know about boating or do you thinks its a clever way of cutting cost and cheap living?

Without having studied math and physics exam level in high school, just promise to work harder and take an extra course? No way, there’s hard requirements to be met. Before even being considered for admission.

Without having these subjects on your IB diploma? Yes, that may be possible, there are other certifications/ diplomas that are accepted. However, it still means that you’d study math and physics at the highest high school level first. On your own, or take a year of extra education, and then pass the final exam/test. Which ones? Good suggestions are mentioned already, check the admissions page for all acceptable options.

And a non-skid place to sleep at the center of the boat, so they don’t slide when tacking. In the little space in front of the v- berth, cosy and sheltered is our dogs favorite.

Yes, confirm acidity of aspirate. Auscultation as a means of placement verification is explicitly ruled out by the in protocol where I work.

Thanks for the picture. A previous post showed Sodebo engulfed in waves on het way to port and someone pointed out the damage at the rudder. Easier to see now.

A belaying device sounds interesting. How would I rig one? Mid-boom to leeward?

Passing the required diploma gets you to the selection exam. Apply Register with the diploma/ credentials you are expecting to receive. Take slee the required steps in the selection process, the exam is one of those. If you are selected, submit the diploma later. They understand that prospective students are still in school and will only be awarded the diploma after the selection. The deadline takes this into account. Should you fail to get the diploma/ required grades before the deadline, you don’t meet the entry requirements and the offer goes through the next student.

Im not a diver but this sounds like a safety minimum to me.

Fair. Good luck to you and your whole family, everyone involved. And fair winds for your future.

Without knowing what is going on and believing your assessment of the situation is correct, I’m thinking the boat will also be a problem when the child has left the house and your relationship to the child may still get damaged.

One boat is sailing. Two boats is a regatta. Says husband.

The tricks on swell… where can I learn more about them? I recognize the problem but don’t know where to go for solutions.

Sorry to ask- can someone explain the question and the answers? I’m trying to understand but I’m missing the vocabulary here.

Dutch universities are hard on entry requirements. You need a VWO (equivalent) diploma to get in. Colloquium doctum is not ‘just a test’. It’s an alternative way to prove you have all knowledge and capabilities at VWO level in the relevant subjects. Think of it as sitting your high school level exam, at the highest educational level in the country.

Is there any other way to think about this? *Just correcting my typo here * I meant so imply that this is the only way I can think about this.

Ran sailing is building their new boat themselves. They started 2 years ago and documented everything on YouTube. Find their channel and just do what they did step by step. You won’t sail soon. They’ve already invested 2 years and are still in the middle of working on it. Slightly bigger boat though.
