SUMMARY:Motor training - RYA Advanced powerboat
DESCRIPTION:Advance your skippering with night navigation and rough-weather handling\nOur Advanced Powerboat course is designed for members who are already confident operators and want to build the skills needed to run a powerboat safely in more challenging conditions and after dark. Building on the skills developed at intermediate level\, this two‑day programme introduces a broader understanding of the role of the skipper\, including how to deliver effective safety briefs\, and manage their crew. With a strong focus on night navigation and pilotage\, you’ll gain the confidence to run safe\, structured passages\, with training on the first day running into the evening and typically finishing around 2200. \nYou’ll also explore rough‑weather handling techniques\, learning how to manage engine trim and speed to maintain control and comfort when conditions deteriorate. The course offers an excellent way to strengthen confidence when cruising after dark; pilotage\, light recognition and navigation skills transfer directly to yachting\, making it a valuable progression for sailors looking to enhance this skillset as well as powerboaters. \nWorking at a low ratio with an experienced instructor\, you’ll refine your control at planing‑speed\, apply advanced navigation techniques\, and develop the mindset of a skipper; preparing you for more ambitious coastal passages and the RYA Advanced Powerboat Certificate of Competence. \nWhat you’ll learn\n–  Deliver clear\, structured safety briefs and apply the wider responsibilities expected of an advanced‑level skipper\n–  Plan and execute coastal passages at planing‑speed\, including in more challenging or unfamiliar waters\n–  Apply advanced pilotage techniques by day and night using charts\, lights\, depths\, transits and electronic navigation\n–  Recognise and interpret lights\, marks and buoyage to maintain safe navigation by day and night\n–  Handle a high‑performance powerboat confidently in rough‑weather\, managing trim\, speed and boat attitude for control and comfort\n–  Integrate tides\, weather and local effects into real‑time decision making\n–  Approach unfamiliar harbours and anchorages using structured\, repeatable methods\n–  Manage emergency situations\, including equipment failures and man‑overboard recovery \nWho it’s for\nMembers who have completed the RYA Intermediate Powerboat course and want to extend their capability into more challenging coastal waters. Ideal for sailors looking to build night cruising confidence and refine navigation and pilotage skills\, and for powerboaters preparing for more ambitious passages or working towards the RYA Advanced Powerboat CoC (certificate of competence). \nPrerequisites\n–  Powerboat handling to the level of Intermediate Powerboat\n–  Navigation knowledge to the level of Coastal Skipper / Yachtmaster Offshore\n–  Minimum age 17\n–  VHF SRC operators certificate (recommended)\n–  First aid certificate (recommended)

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:Yachtmaster skills - Boat handling under sail
DESCRIPTION:The ability to sail well in close quarters is an often-neglected skill for modern sailors. Could you keep calm and carry on without the engine in the event of gear failure? Or perhaps examiner intervention!\nBenefiting from a low student ratio this clinic style day will build your confidence\, understanding and ability to sail through manoeuvres you’d normally start the donk’ for. \nUnder the guidance of an experienced RYA instructor\, you’ll look at short tacking\, sailing onto pontoons\, picking up moorings and fenders under sail as well as delving into how to adjust your strategy for differing conditions.

SUMMARY:Forecasts at your fingertips
DESCRIPTION:Cruising in the Solent offers some of the UK’s most rewarding sailing\, but local weather effects\, sea breezes\, tides\, and the Isle of Wight’s unique geography\, can make conditions change quickly. This webinar is designed to help cruising sailors understand how to use forecast models and apps to plan safer\, more enjoyable trips. \nWHAT YOU’LL LEARN\n\nForecast essentials for cruising: wind strength and direction\, sea state\, visibility\, and tide interactions.\nApps and sources you can trust: from Windy and PredictWind to Solentmet and harbour forecasts.\nUnderstanding forecast models: what ECMWF\, GFS\, and UKMO mean for your cruising plans.\nPractical cruising strategies: how to deal with differing forecasts\, spot reliable trends\, and prepare for changing conditions.\nLocal insights: how Solent-specific features like sea breezes\, tidal rips\, and funnel effects shape your cruising experience.\n\nWHY ATTEND?\nWhether you’re heading out for a relaxed day sail\, a family cruise\, or a short coastal passage\, knowing how to interpret forecasts is essential. This session will give you practical tools and local knowledge to make confident decisions before casting off.\nReserve your place and cruise the Solent with greater confidence \n

SUMMARY:Yachtmaster Skills - Advanced berthing & seamanship
DESCRIPTION:We consider this one-day mooring clinic an essential addon to our hugely popular ‘park it like a pro’ event. Practice yachtmaster level boat handling and ensure you know how\, and when to use lines to stay in control when alongside\, and while mooring and departing. \nA robust understanding of how best to use mooring lines is a good way to demonstrate your depth of experience to an examiner and we often see that a lack of practice translates to confused and incomplete crew briefs which fail to impress the examiner!\nBenefiting from a low training ratio this YM level event looks at the techniques you should have up your sleeve for the scenarios that require a different approach.

SUMMARY:Sail training - Sail trim masterclass
DESCRIPTION:This masterclass is designed to help you get to grips with advanced sail trim\, using the control lines to vary sail shape for different conditions and points of sail\, not to mention making the boat go faster. You will practice a range of upwind and downwind trim skills\, to include halyard tension\, car positions and sheet angles to set draft and twist. \nA professional instructor will explain the primary and secondary effects of all controls and simplify the sometimes complex black art of sail trim to provide a faster and better-balanced boat.

SUMMARY:Yachtmaster Skills - Advanced berthing & seamanship
DESCRIPTION:We consider this one-day mooring clinic an essential addon to our hugely popular ‘park it like a pro’ event. Practice yachtmaster level boat handling and ensure you know how\, and when to use lines to stay in control when alongside\, and while mooring and departing. \nA robust understanding of how best to use mooring lines is a good way to demonstrate your depth of experience to an examiner and we often see that a lack of practice translates to confused and incomplete crew briefs which fail to impress the examiner!\nBenefiting from a low training ratio this YM level event looks at the techniques you should have up your sleeve for the scenarios that require a different approach.
