VHF Training

I need to find a VHF training centre in the north west & be nice if they have training in the next 2 weeks or so - (Rochdale would be v-nice)

Anyone know of any good places?

Have a look at the RYA website, it tells you were all the training centres are.

RYA web site...

Although it's irritatingly slow, they do training centres by region which is helpful.

Check out Dave Mallett's Wavelength Training www.wavelengthtraining.co.uk if Blackpool is near enough.

How about a trip......

....to Abersoch, N.W where Jono Gorton is based (Phwheli actually) with Professional Powerboat Training. He has a cracking school, is a real decent fella and offers a decent deal £$£$........ I may even join you and I bet we could get one or two others involved as well whilst mixing in a bit of ribbing.
