Kipper Sailing

Kipper Sailing is a one-man-one-boat sailing school based out of Lymington in the beautiful western end of The Solent on the south coast of England.

All our courses are taught by Kipper Sailing's Principal - John Corden, a highly-experienced, life-long sailor, Yachtmaster Instructor, Short-range Radio Certificate Assessor and Radar Instructor.

Our classic Victoria Cutter "Kipper" is very different to the ubiquitous production line boats used by most sailing schools. She draws admiring glances from experienced yachtsmen and women wherever she goes. Not only does she sail beautifully in all wind conditions but she is extraordinarily well equipped for a school yacht (radar, chartplotter, onboard Internet, heater, microwave, generator, dinghy with outboard etc.).

Kipper Sailing offers RYA approved practical yachting and theory courses including:

RYA Competent Crew

The 5 day Competent Crew Course introduces the complete beginner to yachting and teaches personal safety, seamanship and helmsmanship to the level required to be a useful member of the crew of a cruising yacht.

RYA Day Skipper

Kipper Sailing's RYA Day Skipper Courses teach navigation, pilotage, seamanship and boat-handling up to the standard required to skipper a small cruising yacht safely by day in tidal waters.

Holders of the RYA Day Skipper Course Completion Certificate are normally able to charter sailing yachts in the UK and overseas and can apply to the RYA for an International Certificate of Competence.

Seven Day Channel Islands & France Cruise

An adventurous 7 day cruise to The Channel Islands & France (e.g. Alderney - St. Peter Port - Herm - Sark - Carteret - Cherbourg.) Suitable for those with some sailing experience who want to build their miles and experience cruising in one of Europe's most interesting cruising areas.

RYA Short Range Radio (VHF) and GMDSS Certificate

If you own a marine radio, hand held or fixed set, you are REQUIRED BY LAW to hold an Operator's Licence. This one day courses equips you to pass the licence exam.
