Beginner

Liverpool Yacht Club gives several beginner-friendly routes: its about page says people can join racing yachts as crew and that dinghies are suitable from complete beginner to advanced sailors; the dinghy page invites people who are new to sailing and describes a first sailing experience; the membership page offers a one-month Discover Sailing membership to try keelboat sailing, dinghy sailing and social events.

Training

The club's training page says LYC works with training providers to arrange RYA First Aid, RYA Sea Survival, ISAF Offshore race crew and VHF Radio courses at points during the year, with availability sent to members by email. The RYA listing also identifies Liverpool Yacht Club as a Training Centre for navigation theory courses including Essential Navigation and Seamanship, Day Skipper Theory, and Coastal Skipper/Yachtmaster Offshore Theory.
