The RYA Day Skipper Tidal Practical Course is for those who wish to skipper a yacht during day light hours. This is a scary thought for many and is a huge step from being a RYA Competent Crew member.

Lanzarote is ideal with calm, clear tidal waters, year-round sunshine and an almost constant wind and beautiful clean cosmopolitan marinas. There is nowhere better.

The RYA Day Skipper Tidal Practical Course is designed to show and instruct you, on how to take command safely and confidently of a yacht in known waters by day. As a skipper you have many responsibilities.

Our knowledgeable and calm instructors will coach you in these techniques and guide you through step by step, and then you will hone your skills by skippering designated passages in the beautiful seas of Lanzarote and Fuerteventura. You will visit different anchorages and marinas, and you will plan a passage and a pilotage plan and put it into practice. Also included is night sailing to allow you to experience the joy and awe of sailing at night as well as some of the problems in identifying different lights and landmarks at night.

If you successfully completeted the course you will have shown that you are a safe and competent in skippering a yacht in known waters during the day and will be issued the RYA Day Skipper completion certificate.

This qualification will also allow you to apply for the ICC (International Certificate of Competence). This qualification is required by most charter companies to show your competence charter a yacht. The ICC, can be obtained through the RYA (free of charge if you are member).

As you can stay on the boat, for an extra 2 days there is also time to experience the island from the land. A must is the stunning Timanfaya Volcano, or explore one of the white washed villages. Or how about a trip to a local bodega (vine yard) to see how the local wine is made. For the more adventurous who want to go to sea again how about some sea fishing for Wahoo, Blue Merlin or Tuna.
