Own Boat Tuition

Own Boat Tuition

Sailing yacht & motorboat training - on your own boat.

Polish up your skills and confidence with the help of our professional instructors. Learning on your own boat is convenient, focussed and fast.

Own-boat tuition is the ideal way to gain the hands-on skills to handle your boat in close quarters or to learn how to use electronic navigation aids or radar. Perhaps your first night passage or cross-channel foray?

RYA Practical courses may also be taken aboard your own sailing yacht or power boat. We can offer ICC, Competent Crew, Day Skipper, Coastal Skipper and Yachtmaster Offshore examination preparation.

Students who would like to take the RYA Day Skipper practical course but lack the theory element can join our weekend Day Skipper theory sessions that form part of our Day Skipper combined course.

We can be very flexible; we recently put together a package delivering RYA Competent Crew and Day Skipper theory and practical for a couple on a yacht in Valencia. After their practical courses they took RYA VHF Radio and RYA Diesel Engine and RYA First Aid at our centre in Sussex. All for a cost no greater than joining a school boat for just the practical sailing.
