RYA Level 1 (Start Sailing)

The Seafarers Training Team carry out dinghy sailing training for club members only. All the instructors are volunteers and all courses are run outside of normal working hours. This allows us to make the training very cost effective. Training is concentrated on novice and improving sailing courses, but the courses are also suitable for sailors that just require a refresher.

The RYA Power Boat Level 1 & 2 course is also run for club members that are required to carry out Patrol Boat Duties and other essential sailing support roles only.

Useful Information

We run two RYA Start Sailing and Basic Skills courses:

Spring Course - is run over a couple of Tuesday evenings in May and then the late May Bank Holiday week.

Saturday Morning Course - is run during school term times on Saturday mornings from mid June to the end of October.
