Yacht Training

PRACTICAL & THEORY NAVIGATION AND SEAMANSHIP COURSES.

 

We specialise in arranging sail training courses flexibly, on demand to suit your party’s requirements and to maximise your time afloat whilst minimising demands on your precious holiday time using weekends wherever possible for our practical & theory sail training. We offer all options which include classroom theory & short courses and we offer practical sail training courses starting from late February and March which offers best value too.

 

Remote on line theory learning is available and includes basic, intermediate and advanced theory supported by our Principal working on behalf of Navathome.com

Practical Courses

You can go on an Introductory Start Yachting / Start Sailing / Basic Skills weekend course, Intermediate Competent Crew, Day Skipper or Advanced Coastal Skipper Practical Training courses.

 

We use the sheltered waters of the Firth of Clyde on Scotlands West Coast and offer personal tuition held when you want (generally incorporating weekends), keeping classes small provides best learning outcomes and for us high quality feedback from all  clients. We look after and cater for individuals not large groups, no concern is too small and we try to cater for your needs as far as possible.

 

 

 

Theory courses support the practical by giving a range of understanding about navigation and safety afloat which is essential for anyone skippering or crewing a small boat at sea (Sail or Power). They form a solid foundation on which to build your theory knowledge so that your time afloat can be spent safely. Available either online or if you prefer may visit us at Largs Yacht Haven. 

 

We also offer short one day courses too which include Diesel Engine, Radar and Marine VHF Radio training and examination in a classroom environment.

On Line Theory courses support the  Cruising Scheme at all levels supplied by Navathome, a RYA Recognised Training Centre specialising in online training. Courses include: Essential Navigation and Safety, Day Skipper, Coastal and Yacht Master, Professional Practices & Responsibilities for commercial activity; CEVNI endorsement on International Certificate of Competence for Inland European Waterway navigation.
