We run the full range of RYA Shorebased courses from Dayskipper Theory to VHF and Radar. Many of our courses are now available online too.
There is no doubt that getting on the water is the way to learn boating but backing up this practical knowledge by choosing courses from the wide range of RYA shorebased courses is a great way to both enhance and consolidate what you have learnt afloat.
We run the full range of RYA shorebased courses both at our Poole and Lymington bases and as you will see take a great pride in ensuring that the courses we run do so using first rate equipment, highly knowledgeable instructors in professional, well resourced classrooms.
We schedule dates throughout the year for courses but if the dates don’t quite suit then do contact us as we may be able to arrange something to suit. Courses such as VHF, Essential Navigation & Seamanship and the Dayskipper and Yachtmaster Theory courses are all available online through us. For clubs and commercial organisations/groups we can always schedule courses to suit you.
Please do not hesitate to contact us about the shorebased courses and to discuss which suit you best.
