I am failing miserable in my search for a school doing a 5 day Ocean Theory course. Problem is I want to do it between finishing work on 11Apr and leaving for a big sailing trip on 16 May.

Any google detectives out there who can find one? somewhere around solent or SW would be best, but if suitable I would travel further
 
Good suggestion, but I don't like online.

I am doing my coastal theory online, I find reading on the screen awkward, I prefer books. I don't like the way the software works, no way of seeing what you have completed or where you got up to last session. I will persevere with the Coastal online, but wouldn't do anything as complicated as astro on my own. I want someone to walk me through it

"I am doing my coastal theory online"

Make sure that you have both the theory and practice of 'running fixes' well understood in the Coastal Theory - this will do you well for the Astro Nav. plotting.

There is something very satisfying with plotting a fix a thousand miles out in the Atlantic and then ( but only then ! :) ) having a peep at the GPS and finding yourself within a couple of miles or so of where it says you are.

Good luck
