RYA Advanced Powerboat - Ardfern, Scotland

Hello All

Just a quick note for anyone looking to do the RYA Advanced Powerboat course, that after the last two days I can heartily recommend doing it with Chris from SeaSkills:

SeaSkills - Our instructor Chris - based at Ardfern

Great two days training, from someone who is clearly passionate about his subject and ribs in general - packs lots into a day and not a clock watcher.

Highly recommended, as is staying here when doing it:

Primrose Cottage - Bed and Breakfast accommodation in Ardfern, Craignish, Argyll

Best wishes and thanks Chris

Steve

Yep know Chris for years a top man in every way and certainly knows his stuff as far as seamanship and the 'rules' of the water. You certainly would have a great couple of days under his tutelage.

For sure - and I think a good sign of confidence in his own abilities when you train in his own personal RIB, that he obviously cares a lot about.
