Advanced skippering techniques for sailors with in-depth knowledge of sailing and navigation and those wanting to undertake coastal passages by day and night.

You will gain a deeper understanding of the practical application of passage planning, pilotage by day and night, boat handling under power and sail and ensuring onboard safety and emergency situations. This course is a continuous assessment and at the end of it you may be awarded with your Coastal Yachtmaster certification.
