Material for training, with nothing to sell

Fifteen printable forms and twenty calculators that genuinely come up in licence courses: anchor chain, Beaufort and wave height, distance to the horizon, tidal calculation, life-saving equipment for the crew. All free to use, whether or not you insure with us.

Why we give this away: someone who works through an anchor-chain table in class will think about their policy later on. That is return enough for us.

If you would rather we did it

Request the set as a file

The tool above is enough for printing at the club. If you want to store or pass on the sheets centrally, we will place your logo and send the set back as PDFs, usually the next working day. The name from the field above is already carried over here.

Request text to copy

Hello, we would like to use the training pack for our club: 15 forms as PDFs, ideally with our logo at the top. We use them in training and in the boat folder. Please send us the set and let us know what format you need the logo in.
