RYA Helmman's Course

RYA Helmsman Motor Cruising Practical course

RYA Helmsman practical training two day courses are an excellent confidence boost and encourage the boat crew (also known as friends and family!) to take a more active role running the boat. Holders of the Helmsman certificate will be trained to assist the Day Skipper who is able to manage navigation, boat and crew over a larger geographical area.

Helmsman syllabus trains students in safety, basic navigation, and simple boat handling so that they can operate a motor cruiser in local waters. The Essential Navigation & Seamanship interactive course compliments this course perfectly.
