This fun interactive course allows you to work at your own pace, and to dip in and out of the different topics and subjects at leisure.
The online Day Skipper theory course provides clear, concise training using Interactive 3D Animated Graphics with full Instructor Narration on safety, how to apply the rules of the road (ColRegs), chartwork & navigation, how to use the compass, work out tides to let you anchor in bays or find out when it's deep enough to enter a marina or cross a shallow patch, use electronic navigation, identify all the different buoys, lights and marks and how to use them correctly - plus MUCH more!
When taught in the classroom this is a 40-hour course, but with the Online Day Skipper Theory Course you can go as fast or as slow as you like - you get 12 months access, which is more than enough time.
If you are really committed to completing this course quickly, some people have done it in just a few days, whilst others prefer to take a few weeks or months. However you choose to do it, you will always have full RYA Instructor support by phone, e-mail, text-message or live-chat.
Once completed successfully your RYA Instructor will contact you to go through your results and give and receive some feedback, then arrange to send your your RYA/MCA Day Skipper Shorebased Navigation Certificate!
