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?

Description

The Inshore Skipper ISSA Yacht 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 Keelboats require similar skills but 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.

Sail in Asia believe in giving you skills, knowledge, sail training and most important the language to direct the crew in maneouvres 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.
