Seamanship

Seamanship is earned, not learned. Whilst we can spend time learning the basics and some theory in the classroom, nothing beats the value of real-world experience. It’s the constant learning experience that is the draw for many sailors.
At sea, every day is a school day.

Skills covered

This module covers various skills to get you started in sailing. It can’t replace practical experience; however, from the language used, some helpful knots and things to think about when anchoring it will provide a platform to build on when out on the water.

On completing this module, you’ll earn the seamanship insignia!
