RYA Theory Courses
RYA Theory, come prepared - these courses are challenging and thought provoking. Fastrackers learn in modern classrooms with first class facilities. We believe that your theory should be taught ashore before you put theory into practice.
Theory in Comfort
At our UK shore based facility you can study your theory in comfort. Based in the Cotswolds near junction 15 M4 you can stay for a week. Master the theory before arriving for our weekly RYA courses. Call for information.
If you would like to study your RYA Theory as part of a holiday, then why not stay at Villa El Mirador www.costa-brava-villa.com. Please contact us for details.
