RYA Training Courses

Why take an official RYA course?

The sport of sailing is exhilarating, fun, and personally challenging. It is also a safe sport, especially when everyone is sailing within his or her experience and confidence levels. For this reason, the governing body of our sport, the Royal Yachting Association, has designed a progression of training courses to ensure that every novice sailor gains their experience in a safe and predictable way to give them the greatest confidence.
