What will I learn?

The Skipper Course equips you with practical skills to plan safe journeys, manage real emergencies, and lead your crew with assurance. You'll master straightforward procedures for man overboard situations, injuries, engine breakdowns, and rough weather, along with route planning, fuel estimates, chart reading, basic COLREGs, and VHF radio operation. Develop solid decision-making abilities, brief passengers properly, and ensure every trip remains under control, efficient, and in line with regulations.
