Course Structure

The RYA have introduced a new training structure. The Sailing Level 1 and 2 are now called Start Sailing and Basic Skills.   The structure of these two courses remain basically the same as the old Level 1 & 2. Here at Haversham, Basic Skills will be combined with Start Sailing .

The Powerboat Course is an introduction to driving/handling the Club Rescue Boat. Club members partaking this Course will be expected to do Rescue Boat Duty (instead of any other Club Duty) on 1 or possibly 2 Sundays during the year. They will probably do their first year as Rescue Boat Crew.

The Safety Boat Course is a follow on from Level 2 incorporating Race Management duties, Dinghy Rescue, Windsurfer Rescue, Towing etc. Only Level 2 holders can do this course. Rescue Boat helms are all expected to have this qualification.

There is no charge for either of the powerboat courses.

Course Fees

A charge of £50 (fifty pounds) per Club Member will be made for all sailing courses. Successful candidates will receive their RYA Logbook and pass certificate. Watch this space for further details.
