RYA Powerboat Advanced

Course Price £340 Per Person

Aimed at experienced leisure boaters and those seeking to work commercially. The Advanced Course can be followed by the Advanced Examination. This course addresses areas such as night navigation, rough water handling and search patterns – a great course!

COURSE DURATION
2 days. We start at 9am on day one and will finish about 3 – 4 hours after it gets dark. On day two we start at 10am and typically finish between 4 and 5pm.

INSTRUCTOR – STUDENT RATIO
3 students to 1 Instructor. You often will find that you learn as much from watching another student execute a manoeuvre as you do from doing it yourself.

PRIOR EXPERIENCE
The course assumes you can handle a powerboat very well as it is about developing your skills rather than starting them! It also assumes you understand navigation to the level of Yachtmaster/Coastal Skipper Theory (although you don’t actually need the qualification). We would always suggest that we have a chat with you about your experience before you book the course to ensure that this is the best course for you

MINIMUM AGE
17

COURSE DATES
We run Advanced courses on our boats at least every two months but for groups of 2 or 3 we are always happy to schedule dates to suit your diary. If you are a commercial or government organisation, then we can organise a course to suit you.

NOTE: course requires minimum numbers to run, if these are not met the course will be rescheduled and we will either move you to another course or refund you.
