The
aim of the Coastal Skipper Practical course is to teach you to skipper a
small yacht safely on coastal and offshore passages by day and by night.
You will need to be suitably experienced before starting the course; your
boat handling and ability as a skipper should to be up to Day Skipper
standards, and you need to have a good knowledge of navigation and
meteorology.
