RYA Sea Survival Course- Day 1

March 19, 2022 @ 9:00 am 5:00 pm

This is RYA day 1 course. We are also running a World Sailing Offshore Safety course as part of our Sea Survival skills.

Sailing and boating are generally safe activities, however in the unlikely event you are ever placed in an emergency situation the skills learnt as part of this course could be a lifesaver. An important part of the course is a practical, pool-based session which allows you to put into practise the theory learned.
