I am very pleased to announce that RYA practical recognition is now in place for all levels of Powboat, PWC, Motor Cruising and Sail Cruising Courses from our Vilamoura Centre on the Algarve.

We are the first and only RYA centre in Portugal who run the Intermediate and Advanced Powerboat Courses and RYA PWC Courses.

Our Algarve Powerboat Courses are taught on a Capelli 6.5/Yamaha 4 stroke, following the same format as our Solent courses. Motor Cruising Courses are running on a Fairline Targa 47, a second Targa (43) is currently being certified for training/charter work and will join the fleet shortly.

Sail Cruising Courses are aboard a pair Bavari 36 yachts, (newer versions of our Solent yachts). PWC Courses are on a pair of Yamah V110 (same as Solent Centre). All courses are run from Vilamoura Marina.

The website will be updated over the next few weeks with all of the new courses, in the mean time however we are happy to take phone and email enquiries and bookings.
