Which one first?
- New to motoring a yacht? Start with the first docking scenarios: flat calm, then into the harbour. You learn how she carries way, turns and kicks astern.
- Know the boat, learning the rules? The harbour passage puts the collision regulations into live encounters, with horn signals both ways. The COLREGs trainer has the rules themselves and quick quizzes.
