Learn Narrowboat handling skills on the beautiful Kennet and Avon Canal near Bath.


Whether you want to make the most of your holiday hire boat or are lucky enough to own your own, these courses, leading to the award of the RYA Inland Waterways Helmsman’s Certificate, will provide you with the skills and confidence to handle a  narrowboat or cruiser on Britain’s canals and rivers.  


If you want to cruise the waterways of Europe, we can provide training for your International Certificate of Competence and CEVNI qualification.


Your Instructor, Alison Selby-Nicholls, has a wealth of experience teaching boating in all its forms from Sailing to power boating to how to negotiate a staircase lock. She will show you all you need to know starting with how to prepare the boat for an enjoyable cruise right through to using the best knots to tie it up at the end of the day.


Whilst your course will always cover all of the topics in the RYA Inland Waterways Helmsman’s Certificate syllabus, we treat all of our clients as individuals and your course will be tailored to your specific needs.
