In fact it's for anyone interested in sailing, motor boating, sea angling or diving, and works well in complementing our on-the-water training such as the Powerboat Level 2 and PWC Proficiency.

The Day skipper course is an integral part of the overall cruising scheme. It is an essential building block of knowledge for those wishing to progress to the Day Skipper practical course. It equips you with enough knowledge to navigate around familiar waters by day and provides a basic knowledge of lights to help introduce you to night cruising.
This course is a natural progression from the RYA Day Skipper shorebased course. It is a must for those working towards taking the RYA Coastal Skipper or Yachtmaster Offshore practical exams. It provides a more complex understanding of how to navigate safely on coastal and offshore passages during the day as well as the night.
Marine VHF radio is the best way of summoning help. You can contact the coastguard up to 50 miles offshore and talk to other yachts up to 15 to 20 miles on the open sea. If you use a marine VHF radio onboard your yacht you require by law a radio operator's licence. This course is taught using radio simulators and will be examined by a short written test.
In a medical emergency a little first aid knowledge and immediate action can save lives, especially in remote locations. Our one-day course covers all the usual first aid subjects, but from a boating perspective. It is aimed at anyone who goes afloat, whether on inland waters, rivers, estuaries or on cross channel passages.
