Once you pass your RYA Powerboat Level 2, you can also apply for an International Certificate of Competence (ICC).
Our powerboat courses take place from both WFYC and Titchmarsh marina. We will be in touch nearer your course with the exact plans.

Please ensure parents and guardians of under 18s liaise with the instructor at the start of the course in regards to what transport is required.
We are lucky enough at WFYC to be able to instruct in both wheel and tiller driven powerboats. So you can have the opportunity to experience both.

Once you pass your RYA Powerboat Level 2, you can also apply for an International Certificate of Competence (ICC).
Our powerboat courses take place from both WFYC and Titchmarsh marina. We will be in touch nearer your course with the exact plans.

Please ensure parents and guardians of under 18s liaise with the instructor at the start of the course in regards to what transport is required.
We are lucky enough at WFYC to be able to instruct in both wheel and tiller driven powerboats. So you can have the opportunity to experience both.

WFYC Cadet Easter Sailing Event
Join us for a fun Easter sailing challenge at WFYC!
Cadets will sail a course around the water to hunt for points, testing their sailing skills and navigation. Once everyone is ashore, we’ll warm up with a basket meal and finish the event with a special Easter prize.
📅 What to expect:
⛵ Sail the course and collect points
🥪 Basket meal after sailing
🐣 Easter prize presentation
💷 Cost:
£15 – Using your own boat
£20 – Including club boat hire
👥 Who:
All cadets welcome
⚠️ Please note: This is a club-run event, not a formal training session, so on-water support will not be at the same level as during training events.
For younger or less confident cadets, parents are welcome to helm or crew, or there will be some adults and older cadets available to sail with them. Please let us know ahead of time so we can help pair people up.
🍻 Parents and family are very welcome to stay and watch – the club bar will be open, so you can enjoy a relaxing Bank Holiday drink while the cadets are out on the water.
It should be a fantastic, relaxed day on the water – we look forward to seeing you there! ⛵🐣
