Making Royal Yachting Association History by hosting the first ever RYA Start Windsurfing Instructor Course in Bermuda.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Since March 2020 during the Easter Holidays, Bermuda\u2019s first RYA Start Windsurfing Instructor course had been planned but then put on hold due to the coronavirus covid-19 pandemic.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This past week Monday, 6th<\/sup> September until 10th<\/sup> September, we had 4 candidates, (3 local Bermudians,) take part in the 5-day course run at one of our Royal Yachting Association Accredited (RYA) recognised training centres. This course was run by an RYA Windsurfing Trainer and moderated at the end, by an independent RYA Windsurfing trainer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

All 4 candidates, Adriana Penruddocke, Nancy Rickmann, Jade Smith and Moriah Wheddon qualified as RYA Start Windsurfing Instructors. This is a great achievement to help to bring RYA start Windsurfing to the island and encourages others to try this fun sport.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
