Learning Outcomes and Application | This unit describes the performance outcomes, skills and knowledge required to sail a sailboard in light wind conditions within smooth waters using fundamental manoeuvres. It requires the ability to launch, land and sail, steer on all points of sail, to tack and gybe and to self rescue. This unit provides the skills to windsurf in smooth water conditions found within rivers, creeks, lakes, inlets, and waters within breakwaters, revetments or enclosed coastal bays. Smooth water could feature small formed rippled wavelets which do not break but can include no more than small breaking white capping waves up to 0.5 metre. Riders at this level can sail boards in light winds up to 10 knots (Beaufort Scale).It applies to leaders, guides or instructors, who use these skills when leading participants during windsurfing activities. Leadership skills are provided in complementary units. The unit can also apply to assistants and support staff.This unit applies to any type of organisation that delivers outdoor recreation activities including commercial, not-for-profit and government organisations.Recreational boating is regulated by specific laws in each Australian state and territory with variable rules. General and specific waterway rules apply to the operation of sailboards. All training and assessment activities must comply with the local state or territory requirements. No occupational licensing or certification requirements apply to this unit at the time of publication. | ||
