Who has done it?
What did you do?
I've heard some horror stories, such as people being marked down for roll tacking...

This would be the GCSE Coursework where you choose a topic and get someone to assess you.

I did it at the beginning of this year. Basically all i had to do was rig the boat with no help, sail around tack, gybe, capsize recovery, have a good idea on sail trim and that was basically it. My teacher came down to film me stayed for about 20 - 30 mins and went off. He didnt have the first idea about sailing and on the day we were all assesed in our other sports the examiner was shown the video (he also didnt have any idea either) and that was it. I got full marks for that and it was all very basic stuff. Also the emaminer wanted my RYA level 1 and 2 certificates.

Plus i have a mate who did it and his mum filmed it for him and edited out all the bits that didnt look good just incase. As long as the footage is good and know show good boat control you should easily get good marks for it.

I dont have any RYA levels
Cheers Splosh, I dont get much info from my PE teachers...
When doing 'factors that influence sport' My theory teacher pretty much said that you had to be rich to own a boat.... I was not particularly impressed.
Another PE teacher told me that sailing wasn't tiring...
