Training can be stressful and we create a safe, relaxed environment to help you immerse yourself into the course and allow you to learn in the way most appropriate to you.
You can join any of our training schemes at the level which is most appropriate to your experience and ability. All courses run at Fowey Maritime Centre offer the same warm welcome to beginners and experienced mariners alike.
We understand that you may be apprehensive about your first steps afloat but we meet high standards for quality of instruction, and safety is of paramount importance on every course.
We look forward to chatting about your training requirements and planning your development into an exciting new world afloat.Whilst practical yachting courses are accommodated onboard, we can assist finding accommodation locally (we are happy to help) to make your training time with us a memorable short break.
