Preparation: 5 days intensive, advanced level repetition to sharpen up your skills before taking your RYA/MCA Yachtmaster Coastal Exam. Since you’re already a competent and experienced skipper there won’t be any teaching. In stead, one of our senior instructors will be your coach and provide you with constructive feedback throughout this session. You’ll be put through your paces and practice pilotage, night navigation, close quarters manoeuvring under power as well as under sail and any other areas that might need brushing up.
Exam: A qualified RYA Yachtmaster Examiner independent of our Training Centre will give you the chance to demonstrate that you are a competent Yachtmaster Coastal. Be prepared to answer questions on any part of the RYA Sail Cruising syllabus (except Ocean Yachtamster) and show that you can take full responsibility for the management of the yacht, the crew and the passages.
