RYA COASTAL SKIPPER THEORY.......

RYA COASTAL SKIPPER THEORY........ I thoroughly enjoyed this online course as the website was user friendly, and the course material easily accessible. The modules were clearly displayed, with easy access to an online tutor if you need it. Response times are quick and helpful.

Excellent

Excellent. Greatly Recommended.
I did the online theory Day Skipper course with Urban Truant; the website is very user friendly.
We explored different providers to do a Practical Day Skipper course for myself and Competent Crew for my wife and kids. After looking at other larger providers we decided to go with Urban Truant, expecting a more personalized experience.
They exceed our expectations. The trainer, Alyce, was excellent. She knew exactly what to do in every situation, had everything planned perfectly in advance and was very patient and engaging with the kids. Two of us are Coeliac and follow a Gluten-Free diet. They catered for our dietary requirements, with very good quality food.
I would happily continue my sailing journey with the Urban Truant team.

Trust UT with online and on-the-water Yachtmaster Training

I am a lifelong sailor interested in confirming my navigation/seamanship skill and sharpening my skills prior to the Yachtmaster Coastal/Offshore exam. I have taken several online RYA courses both from Urban Truant and another approved RYA school. Urban Truant is - by far - the best school to trust with your time and investment in course fees. Russ and Rich are accessible, patient, responsive, and experienced teachers/sailors. The UT course dashboard/technology is reliable and up-to-date with latest tech interface. Most important - the lessons and the final exams are tailored to actual sailing/boating challenges you will experience as a skipper. Trust UT with your online learning and follow-up with on-the-water instruction! Thanks UT : )
