The RYA Day Skipper course will show you the difference between being crew and being the person pro-actively in charge. You will learn about preparation for sea, deck work, navigation, pilotage, meteorology, rules of the road, maintenance and repair work, engines, victualling, emergency situations, yacht handling under power, yacht handling under sail, passage making, seamanship skills, and you will sail a night time passage through shipping lanes.
