Much of the Course is spent on teaching you how to teach and debrief other students. The trainer will show you some of the tricks of the trade. Those who have experience of instructing in other disciplines will find that some of that experience is relevant, however a good power cruising instructor is without exception a good skipper first. During your course you will role play the part of the instructor so you must have a good understanding of your subject and be confident you can demonstrate all the boat handling skills in the Dayskipper Course well.
