Our RYA Stage 3 is a great way to further your child's confidence in sailing. We will introduce the next steps on their pathway through time on the water, games, and a lot of fun. By the end of the course, they will have great control over the boat and be able to perform most of the skills needed to get anywhere on the water.
Our Course will begin with a recap of the RYA Stage 2, and we will get on the water to check how our skills are doing. We will quickly move on to the stage 3 syllabus. We will use single-handed and have an amazing time on the water, developing skills
