Building on the fundamentals from Stage 1 and 2, RYA Stage 3 and 4 will develop your child's sailing skills, introducing new theory, manoeuvres, and the opportunity to sail both singlehanders and doublehanders. They'll gain confidence handling different boats, improving their technique, and learning essential skills like coming alongside, sailing a set course, and recovering from a capsize. By booking the combined course, they'll get extra time on the water to refine their skills while saving £40 compared to booking separately.
