Practical Yachting MASTERclasses
Our practical yachting courses are a logical step after following a RYA shorebased course. We have structured these C-MASTERS courses as a proven mix of useful theory and a lot of practice for developing the skills you need for skippering and navigating a yacht.
The C-MASTERCLASS practical yachting courses are ideal to get important skills under control, and enjoy sailing even more.
Navigation @ Night

Practical Radar use

Passage Planning

Practical course to learn the key messures to improve the safety of your crew and yacht, covering the use of safety materials and emergency procedures (e.g. MOB) on board of a C-MASTERS yacht
Practical Celestial Navigation

Limited number of participants - LESS IS MORE
Our courses have a maximum of 3 participants, both in our classroom and on our yachts. Compared to many sailing schools, this is almost half the number of students on a practical course. This means more time for our instructors to coach you on complex exercises. For you this means double the amount of time and fun behind the wheel or at the chart table, getting your skills quicker and better developed.
LESS IS MORE at the C-MASTERS practical courses.
