Course Qualifications – RYA Small Craft First Aid, (Equivalent to HSE Appointed Persons)
RYA First Aid Course is a comprehensive day covering the basics of First Aid Afloat. The course is a pre requisite for Yachtmaster/Coastal Exams, and you also require it to become an Instructor. We also highly recommend it for the cruising sailor and crew, as knowing how to respond to an incident at sea could save lives.
