Our one-day course covers all the usual first aid subjects, but from a boating perspective. It is aimed at anyone who goes afloat, whether on inland waters, rivers, estuaries or on cross channel passages.

This course is MCA approved and satisfies the requirements for Coastal Skipper Yachtmaster and Advanced Powerboat certificates of competence and some commercial work afloat.

In a medical emergency a little first aid knowledge and immediate action can save lives, especially in remote locations or at sea. This one-day course is designed to provide a working knowledge of first aid for water sports enthusiasts and small craft operators. Course is given in English.
