Good one day sailing in Switzerland

Hello everyone,

Quick question to those who have any water/wind experience in Switzerland.
I am looking for a placewhere i could take my firends for a one-day sailing experience.
What I am looking for is a scenic lake with quite a predicatable, moderate-to-strong wind conditions.
Additionally, i need a place where ic oudl rent a 6-10 m boat without swiss licence. what i have is a polish yachtsman certificate (which is all inland waters without limits) and additionally i am a member of the gravedona sailing club on the como lake (if this helps).

can anyone recommend a lake and a school/rental place in any area of switzerland (maybe with the excpetion on bodensee)?

thanks,
mcihal

Segelschule Walensee for example rents out sailing boats, some don't require a license. These are labeled "prüfungsfrei" on the fleet page.

Silvaplana is probably the place with the best chance of consistent wind. The scenery is pretty good and I believe there is a rental operation at Sils.
