Course
description:
At first glance the syllabus reads as very similar to
Level 2. The key difference though is the level to which each subject is covered
and the practical application of the skills and knowledge developed. The course
will address directly the use of electronic aids such as GPS looking at the
integration of these aids with techniques such as "The railway track", "the
spider's web" etc
Pre course requirements: No prior boating experience is
necessary.
