 INSTRUCTOR/SKIPPER NEWS

The Call of the Sea Still Beckons for Wendy

Wendy Langdon has been running and instructing at Start Point Sailing on both shorebased and practical sailing courses since she took over the business in 2001.   As well as being qualified to teach RYA Practical and shorebased courses, she is now also qualified  following completion of her PGCE to teach level 1 - 5 (age 14+) courses to youngsters as well as adults.  This means that Start Point Sailing can now offer a GCSE sail cruising module to schools, colleges and youth groups.  If your school or group would like to work with us on this exciting sport project or if you would like us to run any extra curricular activities then give us a call on 01548 810917. 

SUTTON HARBOUR MOORINGS

Following our move from our trot moorings at Saltash, our customers now enjoy pontoon moorings for a second year at our new base in Sutton Harbour. 

This fantastic, friendly Harbour is a superb starting place for our courses and yacht charters.  Situated on the edge of the historic Barbican and a stones throw from the Royal Western and RPC Yacht Clubs it offers great shorebased and practical facilities opening out to the superb sail training ground that surrounds Plymouth, Salcombe, Fowey and beyond.

SHOREBASED AND ON LINE INTERACTIVE COURSES

THE NEW Professional Practices and Responsibilities Course

Start Point Sailing is one of a few schools registered to provide the new Professional Practices and Responsibilities Course – the course is a compulsory requirement for first time RYA Commercial Endorsement holders and for those revalidating their certificates.  

 

NEED TO BRUSH UP ON YOUR NAVIGATION? 

Why not try our new on-line RYA Interactive courses. 

The RYA Essential Navigation and Seamanship Course takes two days in the classroom or take part on-line during your lunch hour, from home or from your yacht.

You can book on line, we will then give you a code to access the interactive site and allocate an instructor who you can email with any problems.  There are lots of colourful interactive tasks to complete.  The ideal course if you are rusty or wanting to boost your Competent Crew or as a pre-cursor to taking the Intensive Day Skipper course.

 

start point sailing is recognised by the RYA.
