Alfer Sea School have choosen the superb Jeanneau Sun Fast 37' as their preferred vessels. They have purchased the 2002 London Boat Show model, took delivery of a second brand new identical vessel in October 2003.

Both of Alfer's vessels have been extensively modified by Jeanneau agents to enhance the stiffness of the yacht, thus enabling Alfer to safely teach in heavy weather conditions. They are both category 2 coded for six people with the RYA, and equipped with the highest standard of safety equipment. One of Alfer's philosophies is that "just good enough is not good enough".

Alfer believes that an effective learning environment centres on the clients confidence in their instructors, the boat and the equipment. Because of thisbelief Alfer has ensured that the vessels, and the equipment carried, exceed the recommendations for a category 2 coding. Their vessels also carry a full complement ofsails, comprising of No's 1, 2 and 3 headsails, storm jib, tri-sail and deep reefed main. Alfer is unique in their ability to instruct their clients' in both the use of furling sails, and the more traditional manner of how to change sails whilst underway. Another of Alfer's philosophies is that, "the more you know, the easier it gets", as you are able to appreciate the common denominators. Alfer intends to teach you how to sail efficiently as well as how to cruise enjoyably.

Both boats are the 3 cabin versions, with two double cabins aft, largedouble forepeak, and both have the saloon conversion allowing a double berth to be formed. They also come equipped with the little luxuries such as pressurised hot and cold running water, 240 volt sockets for hair dryers and laptops, CD player and cockpit speakers and all bedding.
