Training


RYA Start Yachting (3 days)
We also offer Royal Yachting Association qualifications on board Pioneer, which is a 3 day course. The course provides a short introduction to sail cruising for beginners. By the end of the course, participants will have experienced steering a yacht, sail handling, rope work and be aware of safety on board. These trips have proven to be very successful and a good introduction into a sailing career. The Start Yachting course can be integrated into a residential week, or taken over 3 separate day sails.
