RYA website sucks ?

[sarabande]

I have just spent 30 mins (yes, I have a low pain threshold) on the RYA website trying to find training courses and centres.

Spent = wasted.

I have rarely come across a website that is so self-referential, in that it assumes you know a lot about the RYA and training before it deigns to give you any answers. In particular the map for finding service providers is unbelievably clumsy and ineffectively linked to their databases.

If anyone has any influence with the RYA in reviewing their services, can you please stick large pins in them, please ?

Have you let them know about your displeasure?

I quite like the site, works for me, as they say.

I have to agree. I use it on behalf of my sailing club and often find myself going round in circles looking for info. Not user friendly.

Don't know why you spent so long. I found all the information - course available, how they relate to each other and then my nearest centre in 10 minutes flat. I agree about the map - just cramming too much in and not good if you want to go back and search again.
