We are pleased to have passed our RYA EQA Inspection today - no action plan.

We have been an RYA Training center for 18 years (but have been teaching for over 31 years), offering RYA First Aid and RYA SRC radio courses and various other courses.

Scott, the Principal of the center, is also a powerboat instructor, has taught sailing, and has extensive knowledge of other water activities. His First Responder Training (FREC4) gives insight and can explain why we do things when needed.

Today saw Scott, the owner of SPR, spending his first day volunteering at Port Edgar Boat Station, delivering a RYA Level 1: Powerboat Course! 🤩 Training the Airdrie and Coatbridge Sea Cadets was a great day! 🌊 It's great to be back on the water and sharing powerboating skills - Scott's been powerboating since he was 7 and a PBI instructor for 30 years!
