Members who are interested in participating in these courses should print their contact details on the notices on the Club Notice Board.  When we have sufficient numbers a date will be organised and the members advised.  Fees will then become due and should be paid in advance to Peter Bullick.  Non-Members are very welcome on the courses but priority will be given to RUYC members.

RYA Powerboat Courses, Level 2, Intermediate and Advanced

Entry Level Course for anyone wanting their first certificate. This qualification leads on to Intermediate and Advanced Certificates and is the qualification required for an International Certificate of Competence (ICC)  

We can't promise it will always be like this but wouldn't it be nice to have the know how. If you have never sailed, or raced, before, if you don't have a boat of your own - well here's your chance.

For the experienced - and not so experienced

When looking at a radar screen, do you understand what you see?

Would you know what to do if your engine suddenly stopped while at sea! Do you carry out routine maintenance checks?

It is obvious that a large number of people who use marine radios have never been instructed in their use and would therefore not be licenced to operate them.
