For the past two years, I have been sailing with an exceptional service, initially for my Day Skipper and then to enhance my skills. My instructor was fantastic, possessing extensive nautical knowledge, and he challenged all students to grasp the physics and mechanics of sailing. I gained a wealth of knowledge in just two weeks. I wholeheartedly recommend this instructor and the service for anyone serious about learning to sail.
I have been sailing with a fantastic service for two years, once for my Day Skipper and again to gain additional skills and experience. My instructor was outstanding, with vast knowledge of nautical matters, and he challenged all his students to truly understand the physics and mechanics of sailing. I learned an incredible amount in just two weeks. I highly recommend this instructor and the service for anyone serious about mastering sailing.
After completing the Dayskipper fast track course, I feel compelled to share my experience with the service. I gave this review 5 stars, largely due to the instructors. One was excellent in theory, but the highlight was the other instructor for the practical training. She is a true professional who ensures you achieve your best. After a week, I felt confident in my ability to skipper a yacht. However, there was a downside regarding the training boats; some issues remained unresolved even after weeks. I hope the service addresses these concerns, as strong instructors deserve well-maintained boats.
I booked a 9-day Day Captain course, and it was an amazing experience! The instructor was straightforward and a truly fantastic person. The boat was comfortable and equipped with everything we needed. Overall, it was a wonderful time, and I look forward to the next stage of my captaincy journey. Thank you to the instructor and the service!
I just completed a two-week novice to Day Skipper course. It was challenging, with four days in class and an RYA exam, followed by 10 days at sea, but the instructors were exceptional. One taught me the theory, while the other covered Day Skipper and Competent Crew. Both were knowledgeable and made learning engaging and relatable. I would highly recommend this service for sailing education.
I spent nearly three months at this service for my Yachtmaster fast track course. From the start, I felt welcomed by capable instructors. I learned from three knowledgeable and friendly instructors who were great to be around. They were always willing to answer questions and helped me grasp the theory, even after long sailing days. They ensured I improved and didn't let mistakes slide. The boats, while older, were well-kept and clean. The owners were supportive and helped enhance my experience, even planning a sailing trip to gain more miles. I learned a lot and left with my Yachtmaster Offshore. If you want to learn to sail and become a good skipper, this is the place to be!
I took the novice to Day Skipper course with an excellent instructor. It was a challenging course, but that's what made it worthwhile. The instructor focused on my weak areas and helped build my confidence. He is a passionate and knowledgeable sailor, and I truly appreciate the effort he put into our training.
Avoid — After training at other maritime schools, it's clear that this service falls short. The principal's attitude was dismissive, the boats were poorly maintained, and there was a lack of transparency about fees. When I sought clarification on examiner costs for a canceled exam, I received a defensive response. The environment felt condescending, lacking the professionalism expected from a training provider. I earned my Yachtmaster Offshore elsewhere, and the difference in respect and professionalism was stark. Choose a reputable school that values its students.
I recently completed the Yachtmaster Offshore Fast Track program, starting from Day Skipper level, and I'm delighted with the experience. The lead instructor was calm, clear, and extremely knowledgeable, ensuring we understood the rationale behind everything. Another instructor brought energy and motivation, pushing us to excel. Practical insights were provided, especially regarding long passages. The enthusiasm of another instructor, who shared industry knowledge, was invaluable. Another challenged us constructively, keeping our knowledge sharp. Overall, it was a well-rounded experience.
