SUMMARY:Mile builder - Channel Islands
DESCRIPTION:This weekend mile builder is perfect for anyone wanting to gain coastal and night sailing experience\, but also for those wanting to visit some destinations a bit further afield. \nDepending on the weather forecast\, we expect to set off from Hamble on Friday morning and after leaving the Solent\, head across the channel for Alderney. In the event that conditions are unsuitable for a channel crossing we’d endeavour to make a passage of similar mileage along the south coast.\nFor those with suitable experience\, this is also an ideal opportunity to skipper a leg and tick off a qualifying passage for the Yachtmaster qualification. \nPrice: \nSaloon berth: 47 points or £585\nPrivate cabin (single occupancy): 70 points or £875\nPrivate cabin (twin occupancy): 95 points or £1190

SUMMARY:Yachtmaster skills – Advanced navigation & skippering
DESCRIPTION:Elevate your handling\, sharpen your judgement and progress toward Yachtmaster standard\nBuild the confidence\, precision and higher‑level seamanship expected of a Yachtmaster‑standard skipper. This two‑day training event sits between Skipper it like a Pro and our full Yachtmaster Prep & Exam week\, giving members a focused opportunity to accelerate their progression\, refine advanced techniques and gain structured practice in skills rarely rehearsed during normal cruising. \nAcross the two days you’ll work through realistic scenarios\, targeted coaching and higher‑intensity manoeuvres designed to strengthen judgement\, improve consistency and help you feel calm and in control in more demanding conditions. You’ll come away with greater confidence\, more assured handling and a clear understanding of your next steps. \nYou’ll learn to\n–  Handle a yacht confidently under sail in close quarters\, using clear crew communication and decision-making to carry out controlled slow‑speed manoeuvres.\n–  Apply structured techniques for advanced berthing\, including springing on and off\, wind-against-tide approaches and strategies for more complex scenarios.\n–  Plan and execute night pilotage using lights\, transits\, depths and electronic navigation to maintain safe\, accurate progress after dark.\n–  Recognise and interpret lights and buoyage to support confident navigation in reduced visibility. \nWho’s it for? \nMembers who have completed Skipper it like a Pro or have equivalent experience\, and who want to build the confidence and consistency needed before stepping up to Yachtmaster preparation.

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
