"I first saw Alfer Sea School at the Southampton Boat Show. Good price at show and then enjoyed myself on first holiday comp crew so decided to go beck for a jolly. I had a good laugh on my trip and will book another one with you when I have time"

"The level of training exceeded my expectations. John was friendly, competent, efficient, patient, laid back and a genuinely lovely guy. The boat was super, the sailing experience was great, and the teaching excellent. He was always very aware of our capabilities and constantly encouraging and helpful. We felt utterly safe in his hands at all times.

The boat had comfortable cabins, good food, plenty of it and good choice. Resources on board were excellent. It was everything we expected and more, mainly because John was a great skipper. Also the helpfulness of both Alan and Fergus when we emailed or phoned with any query prior to the course.

Thank you all for making it such a memorable week!"

"Good value special offer and a level of training that exceeding my expectations. Lots of practice of useful aspects, not too much repetition of less used aspects of syllabus. Flexible training with weather conditions. Very pleased with training & couldn’t have been more helpful with pre-course info, responses to emails."

"Our Practical Dayskipper Tidal Covered far more in boat handling and skippering than anticipated and the course was covered in a very user friendly manner, with the instructions tailored to accommodate individuals sailing capabilities (ie being seasick) and future needs (ie sailing short-handed etc).

We had a really good week, felt our boundaries were pushed in a sensible way, had complete confidence in our instructor. Also learnt how not to gybe..."

"John is a great teacher... He is not directive i.e. telling you what to do but rather heshares his knowledge/experience and helps you understand the sailing skills. He is also very relaxed and encouraging.

Peter and I had a great time and are now looking forward to sailing again as soon as we can."
Isobel & Peter Todd
 
"Both Alan and Fergus knew the answer to absolutely every question thrown at them. Although they have two completely different personalities and characters, they compliment each other fantastically and managed to drum the necessary concepts into our thick heads eventually… with patience and skilful teaching methods. With instructors like Alan and Fergus it is impossible not to love sailing.

From a personal perspective, I enjoyed two of the most fantastic weeks of my life doing the Day Skipper course. The reasons for this are manifold but encompass the following: I found sailing to be utterly enjoyable and we visited wonderful places. Furthermore the course instructors were fantastic in terms of their instruction, their reliability, patience, personalities and the vigour and love with which they approach their subject. Thank you both very, very much!"

"I first met Fergus at the London Boat Show, Excel. Fergus’s enthusiasm was infectious and made the course a lot of fun. Tasks were challenging without being overly onerous and contrived. As a dinghy instructor myself I felt inspired by Fergus’s calm but focused teaching style. All in all the whole week flew by.

Firestar (Jeaneau 37) was well set up for training, easy to handle and large enough to prove a sufficient challenge when parking and manoeuvring in tight spaces within the Marina."
