RYA 5 Day Competent crew
Our 5 day courses are aimed at both beginners and the more experienced sailors alike. These are ‘hands on’ courses where you will be part of the crew. You’ll stay on board for 4 nights and get the full Yachting experience.
You will experience living on board our Ovni 435 sailing yacht. and really getting to know the boat. Virtually all the course is hands on. You are the crew – without you sails won’t go up and the boat won’t be steered.
By the end of the course you should be able to steer, handle sails, keep a lookout, and assist in all the day-to-day duties onboard.
