    Radar is one of those tools many boaters rely on, but few feel fully confident using when conditions get real. Fog, squalls, night navigation, or busy waterways can quickly turn uncertainty into stress.

    The Intermediate Radar on-demand course is designed for sailors and boaters who already understand the basics and want to go further. This class focuses on real-world use. You’ll learn how to fine-tune your radar, interpret targets more accurately, and use radar alongside tools like AIS to make better decisions underway.

    The course is taught by Teresa Carey and Ben Carey, who bring a practical, cruiser-focused approach and walk through scenarios you’re likely to encounter on the water.

    Because this course is on demand, you can watch it at your own pace and revisit sections whenever you need a refresher.

    Let’s keep the conversation going:

    • What radar situations still feel confusing or intimidating?

    • Do you use radar more for weather, traffic, or night navigation?

    • Have you had a moment when radar made a big difference for you underway?

    Share your questions, experiences, or takeaways below. This is a great space to learn from each other and compare notes.

    Looking forward to hearing how you’re using radar on your boat.
