Windsurfing Instructor
Windsurfing is, with doubt, one of the most exhilarating watersports and to be able to teach others to get up and get going on a board will give you enormous satisfaction. Generations of parents and young people also know the value of practical, certificated training courses, which provide recognised qualifications leading to employment in the watersports leisure industry.
Our 2-day Powerboat Level 2 course includes basic seamanship skills such as handling the boat safely under power in a variety of conditions and you will spend time practising manoeuvres such as coming alongside and man overboard. Some high speed work will also be undertaken, generally outside the harbour. Completion of the RYA Level 2 course will enable you to apply for the International Certificate of Competence, which is a necessity for boating abroad. Powerboat Level 2 is a requirement for all RYA Instructor courses and for rescue boat duty at most sailing clubs.
