RYA POWERBOAT 2 COURSE
This 2 day course focuses on low speed close quarters handling, man overboard recovery, an introduction to driving at planing speed and collision regulations.
You can download a form to apply for this course from the club website.
PLEASE LET ME KNOW BY 1ST MAY IF YOU WOULD LIKE TO ATTEND THIS COURSE
 
Participants will need to bring their own food and drinks and be aware that covid restrictions will still be in place

FIRST AID TRAINING
There are a number of instructors who need to update their first aid qualification
I would like to run a first aid course in April to rectify this and have contacted the RYA who have confirmed this is feasable 
Possible dates are 3/4 24/4 or 25/4

Is there anyone qualified who is prepared to run a course for a small number of participants with covid mitigation in place

We would need to have one resusitation doll for each trainee so I would be grateful if anyone can advise on where we can obtain these
