Why Train With Us?
More than just certification — we build real-world capability
Real World Experience
Our instructors bring years of high-pressure activism at sea and demanding maritime environments - not just certificates.
Inclusive Training
We create respectful, psychologically safe learning environments where everyone feels supported regardless of background or identity.
Small Groups
Maximum 3 students to 1 instructor ensures plenty of hands-on time at the helm and personalised instruction.
Sheltered Waters
Our location on the Medway provides excellent sheltered training waters, meaning we rarely cancel due to weather.
