We offer comprehensive RYA training courses for both adults and youths, catering to all skill levels. Whether you're a recreational boater looking to improve your skills or dreaming of becoming an RYA training instructor, we've got you covered.

Our courses are held in different locations, both in the UK and abroad, so you can choose the one that suits you best. We have a range of RYA Dinghy Sailing Courses, starting from beginner level and going all the way up to advanced. We also offer RYA Navigation Theory courses for those who want to enhance their knowledge of navigating the high seas.

If you want a more relaxed and informal training experience, we have Adult Saturday Clubs and Youth Saturday Clubs. These sessions, held from March to November, provide a safe and controlled environment for learning and having fun.

For our junior participants aged 6 to 15, we have our Saturday Clubs where they can enjoy a half-day out at the club with their families once a month. It's a great opportunity for them to learn and bond with fellow young sailors.

But it's not just about training. We also offer Improvers and Cruise Training Sessions for those who already have their Level 2 or equivalent certification. These sessions are aimed at honing your sailing techniques and preparing you for CMYC dinghy cruises.

If you're eager to put your skills to the test, join our races and compete alongside experienced racers. It's a fantastic way to enhance your skills and get valuable advice from those who have been in the sailing world for years.

For those who are interested in dinghy cruising, we have options for you too. You can team up with more experienced cruisers or explore our club flotilla sailing holidays for the ultimate sailing adventure.

And it doesn't stop there. We have various social and informal sailing sessions throughout the week. Thursdays, Women on Water evenings, and Sunday afternoons are dedicated to ensuring that everyone gets a chance to enjoy the water and connect with fellow sailing enthusiasts.

So, if you've always wanted to learn how to sail or if you're looking to take your sailing skills to the next level, come join CMYC and embark on an exciting sailing journey. Sign up for our RYA courses and take the first step towards becoming a skilled sailor.
