RYA Safety Boat Course
The RYA Safety Boat course is for members already holding their RYA Powerboat Level 2 certificate.
This two-day course teaches the skills required when acting as an escort craft, safety boat or coach boat for a fleet of dinghies, windsurfers or canoes, whether racing, training or pottering.
It includes tuition on rescue techniques and elements of race management and mark laying.
As the demands on a safety boat crew can vary, you must be prepared to enter the water at some point during this course.
It is strongly recommended that a member of a safety boat crew should hold a first aid certificate (or should have experience of first aid).
Students will be provided with a copy of the RYA Safety Boat Handbook.
