COURSE DESCRIPTION: A one-day course for anyone going to sea, providing an understanding of how to use the safety equipment on board your boat.
Cruising is one of the safest leisure sporting activities, and 99.9% of those afloat will never use their life raft. However, if you are part of the unlucky 0.1% your chances of survival will be greatly increased if you understand how to use the equipment and how to help yourself.
It is a well-proven fact that, in the event of an emergency at sea, people with training are more likely to survive. An important part of the course is a practical session in a swimming pool. Experience first hand the problems of entering an uncooperative life raft and assisting others while fully kitted out in wet weather gear and a lifejacket.

COURSE DESCRIPTION: “The 1-Day RYA First Aid course will provide a thorough grounding in first aid techniques with particular reference to small craft afloat.”
In a medical emergency, a little first aid knowledge and immediate action can save lives, especially in remote locations. This one-day course is designed to provide a working knowledge of first aid for people using small craft and to support skippers.
It fulfills the requirements for professional skippers of small craft working within 60 miles of safe haven. The course is recommended by the MCA and HSE and satisfies the requirements of some categories of commercial work afloat, including boat masters.
A valid certificate is a requirement for the Coastal Skipper, Yachtmaster Offshore examinations as well as all RYA Instructor and BCU Coaching awards.
Manuals are distributed during the course for attendees to keep which is included in the price. Tea and Coffee will be provided, but you will be expected to provide your own lunch (good facilities are available nearby).
