RYA Coastal Skipper

The Coastal Skipper 5 day course provides intensive instruction to develop the skills required to skipper a sailing yacht on longer passages. Practical experience to Day Skipper level and beyond is assumed and expected as a prerequisite. Similarly, good knowledge of the Coastal Skipper shore based syllabus (or equivalent) is required. It is an ideal bridge between Day Skipper course and the full RYA/MCA Yacht master Coastal examination course.
