The RYA Competent Crew course is the starting point for your sail training. The course is perfect for those who have completed the our Introduction to Yachting course (Start Yachting), have done dinghy sailing, or are complete beginners.
The course can be completed in either five days and nights or three weekends on board, and will give you the skills and the confidence to crew a yacht.
In our Competent Crew course, you'll learn how to:

- Anchor

Aside from learning the skills to be a competent crew member, you will visit beautiful harbours on the Clyde, anchorages in tranquil spots, or even stay overnight on a mooring buoy.
