RYA Coastal Skipper

Whilst not compulsory, we recommend taking the Yachtmaster offshore shorebased course, so as to consolidate your theory knowledge necessary for the course. IMPORTANT! To be able to charter a boat, you also need an SRC marine radio license. We recommend to also book our online course and then take the exam when you join us in Croatia.
At the end of the course you will obtain the RYA Coastal Skipper Certificate!

The RYA Competent Crew course is what you need if you are a beginner with very limited or no sailing experience. You will learn all the basics of sailing, knots, holding a course and assist with navigation.
