The Inshore Skipper ISSA Multihull course is a 10 day course that includes VHF Radio, Inshore Skipper 1 and Inshore Skipper 2. We generally run this ten day course after students have done their ISSA Yacht Crew Course (4 days). We strongly recommend that you do the Yacht Crew Course if you have learned to sail some time ago and or if you come from dinghy sailing. Yachts and Multihulls require similar skills, and the Inshore Skipper 10 day course requires that you know how to sail in all directions, that you can reef, heave to, moor a yacht, come alongside and anchor. The 10 days is spent learning navigation, meteorology, yacht management, engines, safety and a whole gamut of extra things which ensure you are a good learner skipper at course end. The Multihull course can be taken on a multihull throughout, but our strong recommendation is you complete the course on a range of vessels. The Zero to Hero Course includes all the above courses but also a 4 day Yacht Crew Course and is exceptionally well priced!
Sail in Asia believe in giving you skills, knowledge, sail training and most important the language to direct the crew in boat handling and to keep the crew safe! Making you autonomous is our aim! Ensuring you are confident is our objective. Having fun on the course guarantees your enjoyment and ability to learn quickly. Learning the skills means happy sailors and well trained sailors! The ISSA Inshore Skipper Course is designed for Yachts, Multihulls and Keelboats. At SIA you will become proficient on Yachts, Keelboats and Multihulls. We have 12 vessels that fit these categories.

The RiB skipper 1 Course is an introductory familiarisation course for beginners to RIBs. The Rigid Inflatable Boat is extremely popular all over the world. Generally it’s made of two materials, Hypalon and PVC. The PVC boat lasts about 3-5 years but degrades in the sun, Hypalon RIBs last about twice as long however, but they are almost double the price! Usually these boats are powered by 2 stroke or 4 stroke outboard engines. The 4 stroke is the much cleaner (environmentally speaking) ICE engine and the more reliable. RIBS come in many sizes from small 2.4 dinghies to 15m RIBs that are used by commercial concerns to facilitate offshore oil and gas operations as well as coastguard and life saving / safety roles. Consequently there is a huge demand for training for these vessels.
The RIB Skipper 1 is a one day course aimed at introducing the boat to a beginner. The safe operation of this vessel cannot be under stated. This course aims to be a familiarisation and introduction to safe operating practices. The following topics are covered by this course:
Safety

Inshore Skipper is a 10 day course that has three elements to it. VHF Radio, Inshore Skipper 1 and Inshore Skipper 2. The ISSA course hand book is very comprehensive and is what is required for ICC compliancy. The ISSA Inshore Skipper handbook has been written on every subject that is required for sailing or chartering a yacht. This also includes a section on engines and modern navigation chart plotters.
The ISSA Inshore Skipper should be a competent learner skipper by course end but be aware that if you don’t practice your new skills on completing a course you lose them after a while. SIA are aware of this and every course member is given a free membership of Phuket Water Sports Centre and with this we expect many students to come and sail at weekends or in holidays. Check out our Phuket Water Sports Club and see if it gives you a bonus you didn’t expect?
