On the first night, please arrive by 1830 (6:30 pm) to complete registration and pick up course material.
Seamanship expands upon the CPS Boating course to provide the student with a more in-depth knowledge of tides, currents, wind, waves, and weather.
Traditional navigation, aids to navigation, Collision Regulations, GPS fixes, running fixes, DR plot, way points, the introduction of Deviation and chart labeling in True and Magnetic are among the many topics covered.
Circumstances such as crew-overboard, medical emergencies, and potentially life-threatening situations are discussed. You will “learn the ropes”, from knots, hitches, bends, and splices as you develop your Marlinspike skills.
