We had a go at MDL Marina's knot challenge in Shamrock Quay (FCS HQ). Becky who looks after our sales is top of the leader board ;) We were then shown a super quick flying bowline! #nauticallife #knots #knotskill #mdlmarina #southampton #shamrockquay #sailing #sailingschool

Join us on our RYA Competent Crew and RYA Day Skipper courses! ?? The RYA Competent Crew and RYA Day Skipper is taken over 5 days (either consecutively, or over 2 weekends if more convenient). ?? Both courses can be done on the same boat at the same time, so if you want to book with a friend/partner who is at a different level, you can do! ?? Food on-board, use of wet weather gear, fuel cost all included. ?? Complete guidance from expert and friendly instructors. Click for info...
