Product Description
Day Skipper for Sail and Power is a major reference book for anyone following the RYA Day Skipper course. Right up to date with new developments and covering all the theory and practical aspects of the RYA Day Skipper Certificate with full colour photography and helpful diagrams, it is also a clear and simple introduction to pilotage, navigation and general boatwork for anyone intending to make coastal passages in a small boat. With its refreshingly practical approach and by the same author as the highly successful YachtmasterTM for Sail and Power, no one intending to follow an RYA Day Skipper course whether for sail or power can afford to be without this lively, helpful guide to complement the course and assist with exam preparation. An accompanying Day Skipper Exercises for Sail and Power is available.

About the Author
Alison Noice is a Yachtmaster instructor and examiner, and an examiner of Yachtmaster Instructors. She now trains and examines radio instructors, runs short courses in radar, VHF radio and first aid, teaches Day Skipper and Yachtmaster theory courses and examines Yachtmaster Offshore candidates. Amazingly, she still finds time to sail for pleasure in her much-loved Sigma 33.
Customer Reviews
simply outstanding!
Just what I needed!
Simple and easily remembered explanations - superb illustrations, chart samples and weather photos - I haven't seen another seamanship book in the same league!
It puts the fun back into learning a load of quite earnest stuff.
Alison Noice's style has a twinkle of personality and her book has quickly brought me up to Day Skipper standard. Her other book, the excellent "Yachtmaster Exercises" which I also bought cements the learning into a confident foundation not just for Day Skipper or even Yachtmaster but also happy times afloat. Bravo!
