You & Sea is a professional maritime training provider focused on practical, confidence-building learning for people who work on, or operate vessels. We deliver a large portfolio of short structured RYA (Royal Yachting Association) & MCA (Maritime & Coastguard Agency) courses as well as bespoke, refresher and non certified training. We are based four miles south of Faslane’.


'The courses we offer cover the full spectrum of operational competence: safety and emergency procedures, navigation and passage planning, sea survival, engineering, stability, and boat handling. Alongside certified programmes, we also specialise in bespoke training, refresher packages, and non-certified courses tailored to specific vessels, roles, operating areas, and organisational procedures—so teams get training that genuinely matches the realities of their day-to-day work. Several of our courses are eligible for ELC funding’.

What sets You & Sea apart is our instructors: passionate maritime professionals with real-world sea time and a strong track record of teaching. We bring the subject to life with clear explanations, hands-on coaching, realistic scenarios, and assessment-focused practice that builds both competence and confidence. Our approach is supportive, structured, and standards-driven—learners always know what “good” looks like and how to get there—while still being engaging and practical.

We’re also built to be flexible. Training can be delivered in-person, on-site, or as part of a blended programme depending on your needs, time constraints, and operational schedule. Whether you’re an individual aiming to progress to the next qualification, or an organisation looking to strengthen onboard capability and compliance, You & Sea provides training that is professional, relevant, and designed to produce capable people you can trust at sea.

We also offer a consultancy service, to help you navigate your way through the maze of courses and the multiple routes available, and to help you work out what your objective is. We are experienced, expert and approachable.
