Training
FlexiCrew is our fully accredited RYA Training Centre.
FlexiSail is a fully accredited RYA Training Centre. We focus solely on providing a fully supported, fun and integrated membership and training solution to ensure that you train at your own pace.
We believe that as a member you should have access to the best possible one-to-one RYA training and that it should be carried out on your own FlexiSail boat. Training is the key to your overall enjoyment and fundamental to achieving competency and confidence both for you and those around you.
Ours is a nurturing, hand-holding process for those that appreciate it, whilst those more experienced and well-qualified skippers have access to a whole tier of higher level bespoke and RYA training. The one factor that you quickly learn is that you never stop meeting different situations and there is always something to learn!
The value of personal high quality RYA training is invaluable. You will learn from our instructors, who are all Yachtmaster Instructors at the top of their profession. They are able to relate to you, identify where they can best help you, and then deliver it. When this is delivered on your own FlexiSail boat the benefits are magnified further still. You will learn faster and gain a higher skill level than following any other route. We want you to have at your disposal a toolbox of skills that you can pick from and apply in any situation that you might encounter.
We are RYA training accredited for both practical courses, so whether you are looking to do your Competent Crew or Yachtmaster, we can provide it for you. We work with trusted known partners who specialise in providing one day shore based courses so you know that your course will be delivered to our high standards.
If you need training but are short handed, we have our FlexiCrew members ready to crew (at no cost) and help you on your way to qualifications and all the benefits they bring. Then as a FlexiSail member yourself, our Flexicrew are there to crew for you at any time.
If you have any questions, would like more information or would like to chat through your needs or aspirations, do call us on 01590 688088.
Do take the opportunity to join in on our supplementary fun training programmes, limited to 4 members and an RYA Instructor. These include:
Man Overboard Recovery Days; Ladies Only Training Events; Mile Building (very valuable if you are wanting to move towards Yachtmaster Coastal or Offshore); Night Pilotage and Night Sailing; Sail Handling and Sail Trim Days; Boat Handling Days – under power and berthing.
