RYA Sea Survival Course

Most yachts and powerboats carry a liferaft as well as other safety equipment. However, many people who go to sea have never seen one inflated!

The one day RYA/DoT Basic Sea Survival course for Small Craft is intended for anyone who regularly goes to sea in any kind of vessel. The course covers the selection and use of a variety of safety equipment and includes the opportunity to inflate and climb aboard a real liferaft in the controlled environment of a local swimming pool.

We are pleased to be able to offer this course in conjunction with Suffolk Sailing, one of the largest suppliers of small craft safety equipment in the UK. Students are required to bring along old clothes (including waterproofs if you have them) for the practical exercise, if you have your own lifejacket then this is also your chance to find out how it works! Students will be awarded the RYA/DoT Basic Sea Survival certificate and provided with course notes and refreshments.
