SAILING SCHOOL

Comprehensive course materials are provided, including Log Book, Recreational Boating Handbook and the DVD Boat Smart from the Start Maximum 5 students per course
COMPETENT CREW COURSE - $495
The two day Competent Crew Course gives you a comprehensive syllabus
and enough time to 'lock in' all you learn
A light lunch is included on Day One and we usually go ashore for lunch on Day Two

The theory component takes about 5 hours and is conducted on board.
The other 3 hours of Day 1 and all of Day 2 are applied to practical sailing
The course suits experienced sailors who want structured training in the aspects of sailing that can be missed when learning only from experience
It is like an experienced golfer going to a pro for a few lessons and it is surprising what can be learnt. It also suits newcomers to sailing from beginners age 10

The course give you confidence on the water and includes knowledge of all sea terms, sail handling, rope work, fire precautions, personal safety, man overboard, flares, rules of the road, meteorology, helmsmanship, engines, plus docking, anchoring, tides and currents, basic navigation and radio
