The courses in this brochure are very much hands-on boat handling training. To support your learning we run a range of shorebased courses too. To help with your navigation you might like to try the Essential Navigation and Seamanship Course or the Day Skipper Shorebased course.
There are also one-day courses for specialist areas such as marine radio use, radar, sea survival, first aid and diesel engines. This link to our website will give you full details of all these courses.
