RYA Courses

RYA qualifications are known and respected the world over and our range of courses has something for all ages, abilities and goals. What’s more, learning to sail in the sheltered waters around Swanpool is a joy, though power-craft are always on the water should you need assistance. We also offer powerboat courses that take place in Falmouth harbour.

We can offer our clients recognised  Royal Yachting Association  qualifications in the following:

Start Sailing Level 1 Duration: 2 Days This course provides a short introduction to sailing for novices. By the end of the course you will have a basic understanding of boat handling techniques and background sailing knowledge. You will learn how to sail in all directions and will gain an awareness of how to launch and recover your vessel. You can expect to be able to sail in light winds under supervision by the end of your two days.

Basic Skills Sailing Level 2 Duration: 2 Days

The Level 2 course is designed for people who have completed Level 1 course, or who have a basic level of sailing knowledge and experience. On completion you will be able to sail safely and confidently on all points of sail in light winds without an instructor on board. Many people choose to combine this with their Level 1 course over a period of 5 days.

Better Sailing Level 3 Duration: 2 Days

This course is designed for more confident sailors who are sailing at a Level 2 standard. The aim is to consolidate existing skills and try new ones in more testing conditions, and prepare sailors for the advanced modules of the national sailing scheme. The course will include taster sessions from the five advanced modules: seamanship skills, sailing with spinnakers, day sailing, start racing and performance sailing.

Pricing per person

3:1 - £180 

2:1 - £235

1:1 - £420

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

RYA Youth Scheme

We also run the RYA Youth scheme, which is designed for sailors who are under 16 years of age. It breaks down the adult programme into easily manageable stages, with the emphasis on fun in a supportive, friendly environment. Each stage is two days in duration. However, because of the bite-sized nature of the youth scheme, we tend to assess learners’ progress throughout the first day and then teach to their potential on the second day. This means students often achieve more than they expected!

Stage 1 Duration: 2 days This is our introduction course for children. Students will gain a basic understanding of how a boat works and will acquire some experience of steering and handling the boat. They will also help launch and recover their boat and begin to learn some basic sailing terminology.

Stage 2 Duration: 2 days Continuing from Stage 1, pupils studying Stage 2 will work on a range of sailing skills to help them become a confident small-boat sailor. By the end of the course, students will be able to sail around a triangular course.

Stage 3 Duration: 2 days Having completed Stage 3 you will be able to sail in any direction, and will be able to rig and launch your boat. These skills mean you can regard yourself as a sailor, not a beginner.

Stage 4 Duration: 2 days A Stage 4 certificate means that you have the skills to sail a double-handed boat as a crew or helm, and solve a variety of problems afloat. Passing this course is the natural entry point for the advanced courses on the national sailing scheme.

COMMERCIAL ENDORSEMENT INFORMATION – 

If you want to work in a commercial environment and take up to 12 paying passengers to sea in a vessel of up to 24m then it is a legal requirement to hold an RYA/MCA certificate of competence with a commercial endorsement. That shows that you have undergone additional training, a practical examination and a medical fitness test to operate a commercial vessel. The level of endorsement you hold determines the categories of water you can operate in.

The RYA Level 2 Powerboat can be commercially endorsed to operate in Category 6 waters. This category is defined as within 3 miles of a nominated departure point, and never more than 3 miles from land, in favourable weather and daylight.

The RYA Advanced Powerboat (with exam) can be commercially endorsed to operate in Category 3 waters, once the holder has more than 2 years relevant experience. This category is defined as up to 20 miles from a safe haven.

For categories above this, the Yachtmaster Offshore can be endorsed to operate up to 150 miles from a safe haven and the Yachtmaster Ocean can be endorsed to operate worldwide.

Commercial vessels are also required to be surveyed and certified before being used commercially, and their size and level of equipment determines the category of water they can operate in, as well as the level of qualification and commercial endorsement held by the skipper.

For Category 6 you need the following information –

RYA Powerboat Level 2 license (This can be done with Mylor Sailing School) RYA VHF Marine Radio Course (This can be done with Mylor Sailing School) Professional Practices and Responsibilities (PPR) (This can be done with Falmouth Training Solutions) RYA First Aid (This can be done with Mylor Sailing School) RYA Sea Survival (This can be done with Falmouth Training Solutions)

Re-validating your commercial endorsement –  All commercial endorsements must be revalidated every five years by proving at least 150 days of actual sea service on appropriate vessels during the previous five years, and be in possession of a valid medical fitness certificate. If you are unable to prove the requisite sea service but are able to demonstrate that during at least half of the five year period you have been employed on duties closely associated with the management and operation of one or more of the appropriate types of vessels, you may have your certificate considered for revalidation.
