RYA Radar

4.9(48)

By Go West Sailing

A one-day/8 hour radar navigation course giving you an understanding of radar as an aid to navigation and collision avoidance. Cruising boats increasingly have radar on board. The International Regulations for the Prevention of Collisions at Sea state that if you have a radar, you must know how to use it. Radar is probably the most versatile of all electronic navigation aids, but the best results are only obtained when you know how to use all the functions correctly. It is not an automatic all-seeing eye, and can easily mislead those who do not understand its controls, allow for its limitations, or interpret its picture. Course topics include: how the radar set works how its adjustments and features affect the way it works target definition radar reflectors types of radar display radar plotting the use of radar in navigation and collision avoidance Course materials included in the price: RYA student pack - Radar Course Questions and Answers RYA booklet - An introduction to Radar

Experienced members will take you out on the water and take you on a trip around the tarn giving you a chance to learn more about how boats sail and to see if you will enjoy it. Whilst doing this they will talk to you about the many different ways you can enjoy this fun activity and also what the club has to offer. If you decide to join you will be able to take part in our Start Sailing training series that runs until August. Please come along with suitable clothing and a change (just in case) - There is a good chance your feet will get wet.

All money raised from the Come & Try sessions will go towards our operating costs including equipment and the Clubhouse.
