Expressions of Interest – RYA Powerboat Instructor course

The Club is hoping to run an RYA Powerboat Instructor course over the winter, primarily to support club activities. The course will be four days (including a pre-assessment) and could be run over several weekends.

There will be a cost associated with attending, but we hope to make this as affordable as possible for those who are interested in using this qualification to give back to the Club (such as volunteering with Junior RIB club or WJS).

If you are interested or wish to find out more, please email carlo@rlymyc.org.uk.
