Why do Day Skipper prices vary?
A smaller teaching group
Hamble publishes five-day fees of £760–£825 at its normal 4:1 ratio, and £995 for selected 3:1 dates.
That is £170–£235 more for one fewer student per instructor. Fewer students can mean more individual coaching and practice turns; the ratio is a useful value comparison alongside the fee.
