Nomad Sailing (Shorebased)

Paid for and attended first day of Day Skipper theory course but couldn't face rest of the course. If your a normal working class person don't bother, everyone was middle class, graduate or very well off and lets you know that your not one of them. I had comments like "oh your one of them", was being encouraged to join the club course was being held at until they found out i lived in a council house then nothing, when I said that I couldn't afford a boat at the moment 2 people never said ano...

Excellent teaching and support from Jim Barden, who takes time to explain topics in different ways with patience and good humour until everyone understands. Resources, including the Nomad website, weekly emails with revision aids and downloads of teaching slides are concise and useful. For the section on lifejackets he brought in several for us to open up and explore, and we got to set one off. Highly recommended.

Just completed YM theory through evening classes. This is the third course I have completed with Nomad, having taken Day skipper theory and practical 6 years ago. The consistency of excellent teaching and practical sailing tips in a calm and friendly group setting continues. A very enjoyable way to progress sailing skills.

I recently completed my YM Theory with Nomad Sailing, instructor Jim was great and very supportive. I have no hesitation in recomending Nomad Sailing and especially Jim thank you for a great course

I had a fantastic experience with Nomad sailing completing my day Skipper theory course. The course was really well taught, with useful materials provided.
