If you’re serious about developing your skippering skills, then the 5-day RYA coastal skipper practical course covers advanced skippering techniques – ideal if you already have a strong sailing and navigational skill base (YM theory) and now want to undertake coastal passages by day and night.

You’ll skipper suitably demanding passages and learn more about pilotage by day and night, boat handling, passage planning, safety and emergency situations. It’s an intensive week – be prepared for some hard work. You will be sleeping onboard and visiting ports along the south coast.

Please note this training event is also suitable for anyone looking to build miles and develop their skills with intensive training – so even if you’re not ready to successfully complete the coastal skipper course, this is a really comprehensive week that will take your skills and knowledge forward to the next level.

Price: 100 points or £1300 per person

Marina fees away from the home berth and food onboard are not included.
