Why consider a catamaran?

- She's STABLE - only heels 10 degrees.
- She's QUICK AND EASY TO HANDLE - Two engines makes light work of marina manoeuvres.
Our Day Skipper theory training includes:
- Introduction to chart work, navigation, meteorology and seamanship.
- Learn how to figure out tidal heights and streams and how they affect your course.
- How to identify the 'give way vessel' when there is a risk of collision, 'dead reckoning' and 'estimated positions'.
Also, to give you more time to practise your new skills, there will only be a maximum of 3 students plus your instructor, onboard for the week.
