SUMMARY:Yachtmaster skills - Man overboard & safety
DESCRIPTION:When was the last time you practiced MOB? Does your crew have the skills to recover you from the water? Would you and your crew benefit from refreshing your knowledge of safety equipment and best practices? If you feel extra training would be beneficial in any of these areas we recommend joining our safety at sea day under the expert guidance of an RYA instructor. For new and more experienced skippers alike\, this is an opportunity to brush up and practice your knowledge of key skills which need to be fresh every time you set sail. \nThe day will include a recap of Safety equipment and procedures including:\n– man overboard under engine\n– man overboard under sail\n– life jackets\n– harness lines\n– life raft\n– flares and use of flares\n– sounds and signals\n– VHF procedures including reminder of DSC operations. \n

SUMMARY:Understanding tides
DESCRIPTION:Navigating the Solent means dealing with some of the UK’s most complex tidal patterns. Double high waters\, strong streams\, and local variations across ports can make berthing and passage planning particularly challenging. This webinar is designed to help sailors understand Solent tides and apply practical strategies for safer\, more confident boating. \nWHAT YOU’LL LEARN\n\nKey tidal features: the Southampton Curve\, double high waters\, and spring/neap timings.\nTidal behaviour: faster ebb than flood\, the young flood stand\, and a 5m tidal range.\nChannel dynamics: how the English Channel fills and empties\, shaping extended high water periods.\nPractical boating strategies: docking in Hamble River\, planning passages around Cowes\, Yarmouth\, and Hurst.\nHazard awareness: unmarked or partially buoyed dangers at Calshot\, Bramble\, Stansore Point\, Newtown\, and more.\nReliable tools: charts\, almanacs\, Imray Tide Planner\, Navionics\, and guides like Winning Tides.\n\nWHY ATTEND?\nWhether you’re docking in a busy harbour\, planning a family cruise\, or tackling a short coastal passage\, understanding Solent tides is essential. This session will give you practical knowledge\, local insights\, and trusted resources to plan with confidence and avoid common pitfalls. \nReserve your place and sail the Solent with greater confidence

SUMMARY:Sail training - Park it like a pro
DESCRIPTION:Our most popular event day literally teaches you how to park your sailing boat like a pro. Leaving and coming back to your berth is often the most nerve wracking part of the day – but it really needn’t be. Build your confidence and learn new skills from an RYA instructor who will teach you how to use the wind\, tide\, prop walk and prop wash to your advantage. \nThis full day event is open to both experienced and new skippers and covers everything required for a perfect park. You will plan your manoeuvre\, communicate with your crew and gain plenty of hands on practice mooring the boat in a variety of conditions. \n

SUMMARY:Sail training – Skipper it like a pro
DESCRIPTION:The ultimate bite sized training block! Whether you are a newly qualified day skipper or are looking to consolidate previous experience\, this intensive 2 day event is a great way to develop 3 key skill areas. \nStarting with a sail trim and reefing session\, you’ll get lots of hands on experience and benefit from the top tips and best practices from a PL instructor. As day turns to night\, you’ll work through a serious of navigational exercises before overnighting in a Solent marina away from Port Hamble (choice dependent on weather).
