Combined RYA Level 1 & 2 course
We'll run this course over 5 days midweek in Peterhead, using our wayfarer dinghies as the main choice of dinghy. This will give an opportunity to follow the RYA Start Sailing Level 1 course & follow it up with the RYA Basic SkillS Level 2 course.
We'll begin the course with instructors on board our wayfarers, and progress through the points of sail, tacking and gybing, reefing, launching and recovery, picking up moorings and coming alongside a pontoon or rescue boats, plus learning how to right a boat from a capsize. Theory wise, we'll learn about wind and weather for sailing, good forecasts, tides, rules of the road, ropework, how a sail works, and more. Enough to get you on a pathway to safe and fun sailing with confidence.
We run this course with a ratio of 3 students to one instructor. RYA Logbooks are included.
