Independent study. xplor is not affiliated with the Italian Ministry of Infrastructure and Transport (MIT), the Guardia Costiera / Capitanerie di Porto or any marine protected area, is not an approved nautical school (scuola nautica) or training centre, and awards no licence, title, certificate or endorsement.
