Essential Navigation & Seamanship course
The Basic Navigation and Safety course has been renamed to Essential Navigation and Seamanship. With the new name comes a new way of taking it...

The course has been available in the classroom for a few years, but now it is possible to take it online too through our RYA Interactive e-learning site.

However you decide to take the course, it offers a great introduction to navigation and safety awareness for new, inexperienced or rusty skippers and crew.

You will receive a course pack which includes a chart, plotter, dividers, course handbook, exercises and an electronic chart plotter CD.

This course is for anyone interested in sailing, motor boating, sea angling or diving. It's also the perfect stepping stone to the more in-depth Day Skipper shorebased course or our on-the-water courses such as the Intermediate Powerboat, Start Yachting, Helmsman or Day Skipper courses.

This is a highly informative course with lots of opportunities for you to put your new found knowledge into practice. If you decide to take the course online, you will find many interactive exercises to help reinforce the information and lots of chances to try out what you've learned.
