Last week I completed the IYT International Bareboat Skipper course with Yacht Training out of Westhaven Marina. My instructor, Pete, was really fantastic. I highly compliment his professionalism, maturity, experience and instructional style, and commend him to you. It was an extremely positive and beneficial experience. I enjoyed the course immensely.Posted on Google Robin LewisTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Peter was excellent, he was calm and delivered a really great learning experience, I would highly recommend Peter and Yacht training.Posted on Google hattie tuckerTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Loved learning with yacht training specifically Coach Pete Linford. He was a great teacher snd taught me some amazing skills ultimately leading me to get a job on a 40m sail yacht! Couldn’t have done it without him.Posted on Google Simon LeeTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I completed Bareboat skipper course with Pete who was awesome. My wife & I stayed on board 40 ft for the course duration in Westhaven. She was a non- sailer so the experience was a great intro for her. Pete’s quiet encouraging manor gave her the confidence to fully engage and learn as well as I did. Thanks Pete for the training and added knowledge to take our sailing to the next level and we fully intend to buy and retire to a live aboard 45ft yacht soon.Posted on Google Andrew BurnsTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.
