Where to After?, We would hope that this course will have opened a door to you enjoying a great sport and having some serious fun. We would hope that you enjoyed being afloat and look forward to doing some more sailing in the near future maybe completing the Comp-crew course.
Whilst in Sail cruising terms the competent crew course may deliver to a start point for Day skipper in practice it is very unlikely to be the case. Why because whilst some students are able to make this leap most people want to enjoy the process and have some ownership of the skill they have archived.
