Just completed my shore based Day Skipper theory with Duncan Wells at Westview Sailing. It was a perfect mix of online videos, optional zoom calls and homework assessments. You can go at your own pace. Duncan is very knowledgeable and responsive. Great course - Many Thanks Duncan!

I have just completed the YM theory with Westview Sailing. It is a very comprehensive course, great videos (with humour - always helpful) and lots of support from Duncan Wells. I would highly recommend attending the weekly Zoom meetings just to touch base and keep focussed although Duncan responds very promptly to any emails or queries - seven days a week! Very pleased with the course and I would highly recommend Westview Sailing.

Two years ago, I tried to do my yachtmaster theory course via another online provider. It was really tough. I then discovered Duncan Wells‘s videos and now his online course. It transformed the experience. Duncan is a very talented sailor, narrator and teacher. He breaks down, otherwise very complex topics into nice bite sized chunks, introducing a lot of humour along the way. I can’t recommend Duncan ‘s course more highly. You should also try some of his books like “stress, free sailing” – a Bible for shorthanded sailors. I’ve got to know Duncan over the past few years and I’ve even gone sailing with him. I’m so grateful for all his tips and guidance.
