Course Duration:7 days
Prior Experience:Specific pre-requisites required

The RYA/MCA Yachtmaster Certificate is a recognition of excellent skippering ability, sound knowledge of safety and advanced navigation skills. 

During the intensive five day prep course you will work hard on boat handling techniques, pilotage, navigation and man over board. There will also be a good amount of night time sailing to familiarise yourself with the local waters and improve your pilotage skills. This will help build your confidence and help prepare your for the RYA/MCA Yachtmaster Offshore Exam.

Each student will be examined by an external RYA Yachtmaster Examiner who will step on board on Friday evening. You will be assessed as you skipper the yacht on short passages and complete various demonstrations of skippering techniques. As all of our Instructors have been through these exams themselves they will be able to prepare you appropriately so that you are relaxed and confident on the day.

Before you join this course, please ensure that you have all the completed all the pre-course requirements, including holding a VHF license, First Aid & Sea Survival Certificates. 

If you have insufficient mileage consider doing the RYA Coastal Skipper Course first. Alternatively you may want to get some more experience with one of our milebuilding or delivery trips.

If you have no previous sailing experience, consider our Professional Yachtmaster programme - a 17 week intensive course taking you from novice to qualified professional!
