The JYC Academy Adults Keelboat programme is based on our 28ft keelboats.
On our beginners programme you will start with RYA level 1 course. The course covers rigging, steering, wind awareness, tacking, gybing, basic knots and weather.
Once you have achieved your RYA Level 1 course you can join the intermediate classes where our team will solidify all that you learned on the level 1 course and start to work towards the skills in the level 2 syllabus.
Our team will award the RYA level 2 certificate once you have completed all the skills and theory items. You will learn reefing, man overboard, picking up a mooring, anchoring, mooring, tides and more about the weather and boat set up for a variety of conditions.
For those who have completed their level 2 they can join the advanced classes where our team shall take you through the RYA level 3 syllabus where you will be safety conscious and capable of sailing as part of a crew in moderate conditions. It's a great introduction to further seamanship skills and an introduction to racing.
