- Day Cruising Course
| Minimum Age? | Sixteen |
| Previous Experience Required? | Competent to Powerboat Level Two (Coastal)* |
| Duration? | Two Days |
| No.of Students per Boat? | Three |
The course is a fairly even mix of practical and theory, each day. The syllabus includes:
- Basic pilotage and passage planning for small boats
- Chartwork with the use of GPS and other electronics in small vessels
- Assessing tides and weather
As a further building block in the Powerboat scheme, it will cover some aspects of Level Two as revision. Therefore, following a Level Two course it makes sense to gain some experience and practice your skills before attending an Intermediate course. It is also open to those who may not have attended a Level Two, although suitable experience is required.
It is strongly recommended that candidates hold a VHF operator's certificate and suitable First Aid certificate.*
For the full course syllabus, please refer to the RYA Powerboat Scheme Logbook G20, available from Quay Marine Training.*Please call for details.
