RYA Day Skipper courses

Kipper Sailing's RYA Day Skipper Courses teaches you navigation, pilotage, seamanship and boat-handling up to the standard required to skipper a small cruising yacht safely by day in tidal waters.

Holders of the RYA Day Skipper Course Completion Certificate are normally able to charter sailing yachts in the UK and overseas and can apply to the RYA for an International Certificate of Competence.

 

Kipper Sailing offers 2 options:

 

  1. 5 day practical Day Skipper course. This works best for those who have already studied the Day Skipper Theory Syllabus or a confident that the can conduct self-study, prior to the course, to the level taught on a theory course including: navigation; meteorology and rule-of-the-road.
  2. 9 day combined theory and practical course, starting with 4 days in the classroom and then moving onboard Kipper for the subsequent 5 days.
