Doug and the team at Cheifton Training put me through a RYA Powerboat level 2 course, he was quick to respond to my query, worked around my tight schedule and gave me 1 on 1 training and assessment. Thoroughly recommend catching up with Doug and the team to get you on the water!

Very good tender operator course at Chieftain Training - RYA & STCW Courses with the use of digital navigation and pilotage. We had a lovely instructor and very good facilities. Highly recommend and look at the scenery!
Used ( insert generic E navigational tools ) for nav to head up a narrow entrance to where blade runner livesAlistair Walters
Great hands on course. You can’t beat actually going through each knot or splice with very helpful in person guidance.

It wasn’t death by PowerPoint! Knowledgable and industry based staff. Fully equipped classroom. Heads and limited parking. Bottomless tea and coffee and a set of well presented easy to follow courses notes with plenty of practice tests
Definitely be using again. Many thanksKevin Jones
After raising concerns with company owner dealt with matter very effectively.
Training content and instruction very satisfactoryCarey Huscroft
I took the RYA Radar course with Chieftain Training in March 2024. It was an excellent hands-on course. The instructor, Doug, is very knowledgeable and patient teacher. On the day I took the course there were only three students, which was very nice. The course pulled together using radar as part of navigation, which was exactly what I was hoping.
I also got a tour of their engineering room where they keep a number of diesel and outboard engines, and where they teach their engine classes. There was a diesel engine course going on when I visited. It was impressive. I'm planning to go back to Chieftain for their two-day diesel course.
All in all a great experience. I recommend Chieftain Training.Alan R
