RYA Competent Crew

A course for beginners and those who would like to become active crew members rather than just passengers. You are the crew – without you the sails won’t go up and the boat won’t be steered.

By the end of the course you should be a useful crew member, able to steer, handle sails, keep a lookout, row a dinghy and assist in all the day to day duties on board.

Minimum course duration: 5 days. If you have done the Start Yachting course, this course can be completed in 3 or 4 days.
