Have you always wanted to step up to RYA Day Skipper but never had the time to do theory and practical courses? ONDECK Sailing has the answer with the RYA 9 Day Combined Theory and Practical course.
The RYA 9 Day Combined course starts on Saturday morning when, for 4 days, our RYA Shorebased Instructor covers the RYA Day Skipper Theory syllabus which includes seamanship, navigation, safety at sea, meteorology, passage planning and Rules of the Road. On Wednesday morning, our RYA Practical Instructor takes over and you spend the next 5 days consolidating what you have learnt, returning to Gosport on the Sunday afternoon. There will be opportunities to skipper and navigate around interesting harbours, as well as work on your passage planning, weather forecasting and keeping watch.
After completing the RYA 9 day Combined course, and just using 5 working days holiday you could be qualified to Day Skipper level, allowing you to charter a yacht as skipper any where in the world!
