Radar is not just a useful bit of kit to have on board.

If it is fitted and operational, you need to know how to use it properly.

Our latest blog looks at why radar training matters from both a safety and legal point of view, including how COLREGS Rules 5, 7 and 19 apply to vessels with radar fitted.

It is not enough to simply switch the screen on. Skippers need to understand how to interpret the display, track targets, assess collision risk and make safe decisions, especially in poor visibility, at night or in busy waters.

The RYA Radar Course gives boat owners and skippers practical simulator-based training to build that understanding in a controlled environment.

Read the full blog here: https://www.oceansportstuition.co.uk/why-radar-training-is-a-legal-requirement-for-boat-owners/

Understand your legal obligations under COLREGS when operating marine radar. Learn why radar training is essential and how to comply with maritime law.

All eyes on a healthy ocean this .

For us, the ocean is more than a place to train. It is where confidence grows, skills develop and people learn to enjoy boating safely and responsibly.

As an RYA training centre based in Southampton and out on the Solent, we believe good seamanship includes respecting the water we use. From safe handling and navigation to awareness of the marine environment, every trip is a chance to look after our blue spaces.

This World Ocean Day 2026, with the focus on strong marine protected areas, we’re supporting the call to protect what remains, restore what has been lost and help future generations enjoy a thriving ocean.

It’s easy to focus on the exciting part of owning a boat but knowing how to handle it properly makes all the difference once you’re on the water.

The RYA Powerboat Level 2 course gives you a solid foundation before you commit, covering everything from close-quarters manoeuvring and docking to safety and decision-making in real conditions. It’s practical, hands-on training that helps you understand what owning and operating a boat actually involves.

It’s also widely recognised by insurers and charter companies, which can be useful if you’re hiring or planning trips abroad.

For many people, it’s the step that turns an idea into something they feel confident acting on.
