Leisure Courses

Our leisure courses represent a basic level of training aimed at beginners. Courses include Essential Navigation and Seamenship, Day Skipper Course, Coastal Skipper/Yachtmaster Offshore, Yachtmaster Ocean and Radar Tutor and Simulation. All of our courses are based around an Ocean training manual which is the heart of your learning. You will complete modules and will be overseen by a professional tutor. At the end of your course you will sit an exam, which we ask is invigilated and you will get your certification upon completion.

We have a range of MCA approved courses which allow you to study for your theory exams whilst working on-board a commercial vessel or even at home. Our commercial courses offer you an extremely cost effective way of completing your studies. Once you are ready to start practical activities we will feed you into a suitable college.
