3 star sea training - North Wales, Anglesey

With some windy weather on the first day of a 3 star sea training course, we worked in the Menai Straits, and with it being a Neap tide, this worked well for us. Focus was on eddy turns and ferry glides.

The day was finished with deep water rescues, self rescues, contact tows and single inline tow.


2nd day of the 3 star sea training saw gentler winds, F3 and Rhoscolyn was our location with some flow and wind against tide, we found a moderate sea, to work with. main aim was transferring the previous days skills and techniques into swell and a bigger space!!

A break on one of the rocky skerries gave Beat from Switerland an opportunity, to practice and manage a rocky landing.


The day provide a super opportunity to work with stern rudders ...

The feeling of Winter is certainly here with cool fingers and greyer skies, but a super couple of days was had, despite.
