Having brought my son with me we have had the most fantastic time. Roger is a star, it was a joy to be taught by him.

Roger is a superb instructor. Boat is really well maintained. Pre-course admin spot on (Karen). I will be sailing with Commodore again.
Shaun – Day Skipper August 2011
A thoroughly enjoyable week and I am already wondering when I can fit in Day Skipper. Tony did a great job all week with a calm and assuring approach.
Mark – Competent Crew August 2011
Thrilling, relaxing, exciting, escaping! The yacht was fantastic and the staff at Commodore Yachting very welcoming. Jeff, our skipper was great with the teenagers and good company. His knowledge was fantastic and everything about our trip round the Isle of Wight was enjoyable. I have recommended you to practically everyone I have spoken to since!
Peter – Instructional Charter August 2011
I have really enjoyed learning on this fantastic course. We were very lucky to have experienced a variety of weather conditions and challenges. Simon’s guidance was excellence and the highlight was the helicopter training arranged by our skipper! Thank you.

Duane – Competent Crew February 2009
“Thanks for a fantastic week sailing to the Isles of Scilly. We thoroughly enjoyed ourselves and gained a huge amount of mileage and experiences. Drying out on the harbour wall in St Mary’s was interesting and something we should hopefully be able to replicate on our own boat! Really enjoyed the islands, wandering around St Mary’s and the BBQ on the beach on St Agnes, stunning views and crystal clear water. We will definitely be visiting the Islands again!
Thanks Stuart and Karen! A wonderful trip! We would recommend your milebuilding cruises to all!”
