The London RYA Day Skipper Theory Course is perfect for individuals in Ipswich with a passion for sailing. Hamilton Sailing, a respected Sailing club in Ipswich, has been offering theory courses in London for the past 15 years. The course is designed for those with little to no navigation experience, regardless of their sailing background.
The course covers a range of important topics such as chartwork, pilotage, passage-planning, weather, and sea-safety. It provides participants with a solid understanding of navigational and sailing theory, making it a valuable complement to the practical RYA sailing courses offered by Hamilton Sailing.
With experienced RYA sailing instructors, participants can expect the subjects to come to life with their patience, knowledge, and practical experience. Hamilton Sailing maintains low class numbers, ensuring each participant receives personalised attention.
To further assist participants, Hamilton Sailing provides extensive free materials including charts, informative books, Sailing Theory book, videos, and weekly easy-to-understand handouts. The courses are conducted over one night per week and two days over a weekend, offering over 40 hours of tuition and exams to ensure thorough learning.
Even if a participant misses a night, catching up is possible with the help of the instructors. Hamilton Sailing is committed to helping participants learn and pass the course. In fact, if a participant fails the course on the first attempt, but attended all evenings, they will be given further opportunities to re-take the course free of charge.
The course covers a wide range of topics including basics of seamanship, coastal navigation and pilotage, tides chartwork, electronic charts, position fixing, plotting a course to steer, weather forecasting and meteorology, collision regulations, and emergency and safety procedures.
Previous participants have provided highly positive feedback, praising the teaching style of the instructors, real-world examples, and engaging classes. They highlight that the course is well-paced, enjoyable, and provides a solid understanding of the theory, building confidence for future practical sailing.
For those unable to attend the London classroom, Hamilton Sailing also offers an online RYA Day Skipper Theory course through Navathome.
