About practical trainings
RYA Start Yachting – weekend training for beginners
Two-day course in Jastarnia provides a short introduction to sail cruising for novices and basic information on yacht handing. The course is open to everyone, irrespectibe of age or experience. This is a great opportunity for families wanting to spend an active weekend.
Practical Courses:
Practical courses take the form of 5-day cruises on Delphia 40 yachts. There is a maximum of 5 crew members undergoing the training so everyone can experience the individual approach. And it also allows more time for practicisng and boat handling.
Each day of the course is filled with intensive practical training: manouvering in port, planning the route and many excercices based on real life situations which skippers can face when sailing i.e. alarms, rules of passage, navigation, emergency situations). During stops there is plenty of time to revise theoretical knowledge or consult the instructor.
RYA Competent Crew course is a basic training of a qualified crew member completed during a sea passage. Participants learn how to handle yacht and sails, steer and work on deck safely. This course is ideal for those who wish to begin the adventure with offshore sailing. The experience gained at a passage counts for sea time needed for more advanced certificates: both RYA and Polish certificates.
RYA Day Skipper course is a training for those who want to take charge on short day passages under instruction (e.g. in Croatia or Gdansk Bay). RYA Day Skipper is a perfect choice for yachtmen, who are entitled to offshore sailing but lack experience for charters or offshore yacht skipper certficate.
