If your profile age is correct you can't have an RYA instructor qualification! The problem with insurance is its a pooled risk and therfore we all pay (to a some extent) for people who are careless because the're insured. Excesses are supposed to overcome this but they don't allways work |

i pitch poled a national 12 in force 9 and smashed my head onto an aluminium bracing bar and put a big crease in it, it later snapped off whilst on a broad reach! Poor boat.

Bad enough putting a big crease in your head - but to have it snap off.... |
