This is a comprehensive introduction to cruising for inexperienced skippers. This course equips you with enough knowledge to navigate around familiar waters by day. A basic knowledge of lights is also included to introduce you to night cruising. This shorebased course is the perfect preparation for the Day Skippers Practical course.

We have a chart plotter specifically for use on training courses, giving you a realistic insight into electronic navigation. The use of this plotter is an integral part of our Day Skipper shorebased course.

The course is taught over 40 hours plus two exam papers.
