There's
an old saying
" ANYONE CAN GO OUT TO SEA! GETTING BACK IS THE PROBLEM "
Some basic
training is very essential, the training you require
depends on "Where you want to go, and how you do it". The innocent
trip out of the harbour can turn to disaster if the weather turns bad and you
can't get back. This can be avoided with some NAVIGATION training,
we have the course for you! Two types of courses are available.
PILOTAGE, this is
for short day excursions, well within the sight of land, by day, and in good
settled weather.
NAVIGATION is for
longer trips around the coast, by day or night, and for offshore cruises when
you are likely to be out of the sight of land.
These courses
which are theory only can be considered in three categories: -
PILOTAGE. 2.DAYS. or
6 NIGHT CLASSES.
COASTAL
SKIPPER. 4.DAYS.
or 12 NIGHT CLASSES.
OFFSHORE
SKIPPER. 6.DAYS.
or 24 NIGHT CLASSES.
NAVIGATION
COURSES are Department of Transport
/ Irish Sailing Association Yachtmaster courses. Day and night courses are
generally arranged to suit the participant's time available.

modern approach and uniquely designed training aids, we can assure you that not
