RYA Day Skipper practical
Five days aboard a yacht with an RYA instructor, learning to skipper short passages by day.

Who this gift is for
Someone who has done some sailing and wants to be the one in charge.

They want to charter a yacht, or take their own boat out with family and friends.
They're working towards Coastal Skipper or Yachtmaster.
Schools usually suggest some time afloat before the practical course, around five days and 100 miles at sea. The theory course needs no experience.
