RYA Safety Boat

This two-day course provides the skills required when acting as an escort craft, safety boat or coach boat for a fleet of dinghies, windsurfers or kayaks, or for racing or training activities. It includes rescue techniques and elements of race management and mark laying.

An RYA Powerboat Level 2 certificate must be obtained before taking this course.

The RYA safety boat qualification is not mandatory for helming club safety boats at club events, but the techniques and skills it brings are highly desirable.
