For Coastal Skipper & Yachtmaster Examinations

It is a RYA requirement that all candidates seeking to be awarded Coastal Skipper (tidal) and Yachtmaster certificates of competence are examined by an external RYA Examiner. As the Examiner will carry out the assessment onboard a school yacht the same elements are included in the prices quoted. The fees for the Examiner will be split between the number of candidates.

Personal electronics
The school yacht has a CD (and MP3) player so feel free to bring your favourite music with you. Please bring a cigarette lighter charge lead with you if you intend to use your mobile phone. However, we do ask that phones are switched off during tuition sessions. There are no facilities for charging personal computers onboard and we do not recommend you bring them as they are easily damaged at sea. Many of the ports we stop at have internet cafes at which you can check your email. There are no facilities for electric shavers onboard.

Meals & domestic duties
The ingredients for breakfast and snack lunches will be provided onboard the yacht and are included in the course price. On each 5-day course, the ingredients for 3 evening meals will be provided and are included in the course price. Part of what we teach is how to live onboard and maintain a yacht. This involves taking your turn in the galley and undertaking routine maintenance and housekeeping duties. All students will be expected to participate. When we eat ashore, each person pays for their own food and drink.

Personal safety
The school yacht you will be using is safety coded by both the RYA/MCA (as a commercial sail training vessel) and the Hellenic authorities. It has all of the safety equipment necessary and is regularly surveyed. It is not necessary to bring your own personal safety equipment.

At the end of your course
At the conclusion of your course your Instructor will carry out individual de-briefs with each student. These will identify any aspects of the syllabus that they feel you need to work on and help define the best way to progress your yachting activities. Students are expected to help with the unloading and cleaning of the yacht at the end of their course. Please return all bedding, towels and waterproofs to the store so that they can be prepared for the next group. Certificates will be awarded in Corfu to all successful candidates with the exception of the Coastal Skipper (tidal), Yachtmaster and ICC courses which are issued by the RYA in the UK. This normally takes approx. 10 days.
