About PAAS

For Day Skipper & Coastal Skipper / Yachtmaster Courses - Power & Sail

More About Your Personal Audio Assistant Series - PAAS
Are you looking for all the help you can get, to get to grips with the new and different subjects associated with navigation and general marine based activities. Or would you just like to brush up on your existing knowledge before getting back in the classroom again?

Would you like to get that all important pre-course knowledge in a very easily understood way?
Would you like to PAAS your Day Skipper or Coastal Skipper/Yachtmaster shorebased course more easily by being aware of areas which you need to memorize and be familiar with before your course starts?
Reading books and working through practical examples is a great start but, if you are like me and have a busy lifestyle, then being able to sit and read and, more importantly, understand some of the subject matter is not enough having someone TELL you and describe to you the important points to remember whenever you choose and as often as you wish is a great benefit and a great relief...

Just getting to grips with the language of the sea can be difficult enough for the new sailor let alone all the other information you need to take on board and for the more experienced just getting back into the classroom situation can in itself be quite daunting, but getting up to speed with your knowledge base will make it a less stressful experience. Having your own Personal Audio Aid covering the main points and subjects, which you can play as often as you wish whilst travelling to and from work, or download to your ipod and listen to whilst you run or just sit will set you on the road to that all important PASS.

 

Testimonials
Fred Buckingham, Wind wave workboats "Tony's exceptional skills as a skipper are probably equalled by his ability as a teacher. How did he get so much useful information onto these two CDs? If only he had made these 20 years ago."

Luke Austin, Wind farm skipper, Liverpool "I have an Advanced Powerboat certificate with a commercial endorsement. I am studying to take my Yachtmasters this year. These discs have been wonderful. A painless way to learn all those endless facts. In the car at home or on a walk with the iPod I am finding them very useful."

Bob Pitcher, Grimsby "I have been fishing all my life but havent bothered with my skipper's ticket up till now. The information on the discs is explained very clearly and it feels as if Tony is talking to you personally.
A really easy way to learn all those facts."
Bob Pitcher, Grimsby
Dave Maddock, Plymouth. "I have been at sea since I left school and skippering all sorts for the past 20 years. The CDs are good at presenting the information in an interesting way. The information provided is basic for the job. I am a full time professional skipper so a lot of the information especially on the first tape takes me back to my early days at sea. I recommend these discs as an ideal to refresh your knowledge."
Dave Maddock, Plymouth.
