Bow thruster dependency increasing

There is no RYA way, never has been, they have a syllabus, that's it. For example, if you look at their information on MOB, you will see multiple ways are mentioned. Calculating height of tide, there are a few different ways offered, same with fixing your yachts position et cetera.
If one has the joy of a newly qualified yachtmaster on board one might revise that thought.
 
It's my experience that the newly qualified in any area know everything. It takes years to understand the depths of one's ignorance.
I only began to delve the depths of my ignorance after doing my Yachtmaster. Until then I'd known it all as a Day Skipper and was ready for a circumnavigation after my Comp Crew.
