All our training is undertaken to a written curriculum. Whilst we have a fully qualified RYA Instructor as our Coxswain, currently all our examinations are undertaken at
RYA Findhorn Yacht Club

FASTA promotes powerboat training and skills development through formal and informal training, all under the guidance and qualifications of the RYA. The introductory and helm training, Levels 1 and Level 2 respectively, form the core qualifications. Intermediate, advanced and safety boat training options are also available.
For those who would like to develop their skills and experience, RFYC owns, and has access to, a number of safety boats.
A group of willing volunteers from Dornoch Lifeboat form the core of the Club’s rescue team. They train and practise regularly in advanced boat handling, navigation, casualty handling etc, in a variety of weathers, sometimes even at night! It’s exciting, good fun, and provides a safety service for dinghy training and racing events. The team also generates great social events.
