Welcome Canadian Recreational Yachting Association Instructors

The Association plans sail and power Instructor Clinics,
courses, and seminars to meet the needs of our members and
schools, including:

Skipper;
- 2. Advanced level Coastal Skipper;
- 3. Specialized courses for Yachtmaster
Instructors; and,
