RYA Coastal skipper

[103denby]

Hi all
Can anyone recommend a company for doing a coastal skipper course either UK or abroad.
I have allready got my day skipper so presume this is the next best step

Do you mean theory or practical?

 

[103denby]

Practical or even both if possible

Would also be interested in doing Coastal (practical) later in year if you / course needs extra numbers etc.
Did ask Clive @ Suncoast earlier in year (did my DS etc there) but he said they often struggle to get 3/4 bods at once to make a course ....

There are Schools closer to home than the South Coast and the Solent that could fix You up.
However I would suggest that the Solent area is a good idea.
Why? You may ask.
I have just completed a course in the Solent.
I could have done it locally but I felt I got more out of it because I was in strange waters and had to concentrate more.
Plus there is every type of vessel, lights , bouys and tide situations etc.
Espescially the Solent, bit like the Menai Straits with tidal currents set to confuse!
Oh! and that Mendez Marine lot.
I've heard they are not too tardy too!
The only prob going down there is they talk a bit funny.

They knew I'd be along sooner or later! /forums/images/graemlins/laugh.gif. I've just got back from delivering a Sealine 42/5 from Guernsey or else I'd have been here by now! What a cracking good run, 4 hrs 10 mins, St Peter Port to entrance of Pompey Harbour.


We can do it for yer both. Link up and we'll talk! Send me a PM.
