There are a number of options available for online / distance learning navigation courses and after careful consideration we’ve teamed up with the developers of what we believe to be the best online RYA Courses around.

While you can buy these courses elsewhere, choosing to book with First Sail Training as well as great service, you’ll benefit from our Lowest Price Guarantee.

The RYA Navigation Programme consists of three main courses, the introductory RYA Online Essential Navigation & Seamanship Course, the intermediate RYA Day Skipper Theory and the advanced RYA Coastal Skipper & Yachtmaster Offshore Shorebased Course (normally referred to as either Coastal Skipper or Yachtmaster Theory).

For the RYA Essential Navigation & Seamanship Course we’ve chosen to partner the RYA through their excellent RYA Interactive system which provides a course full of animations and video tutorials, with built in knowledge tests throughout.

The online Day Skipper & Yachtmaster Theory Courses that we offer are delivered by Navathome, an RYA recognised Training Centre specialising in online training. Your course is a fully interactive learning experience with quizzes and animations running throughout. With optional narration for appropriate topics, it’s often described as engaging, fun and even a little bit addictive!
