Whether you are a newcomer to boating or simply need to brush up on a few skills, there is a course for you. The navigation courses come in four levels.
You don't need to start at the beginning if you already have some experience - just pick the level that suits you.
Before taking the Day Skipper and Coastal Skipper courses on the water it is always advisable to take the equivalent shorebased navigation course. The subject is too complex to be covered in sufficient detail on board the boat, so your best preparation is to take a shorebased course and then put the skills into practice on the water.
