Product Details

The programme is suitable for beginners and it also offers intermediate and experienced sailors the opportunity to recap essential skills, improve techniques and learn a few new tricks.

Joining this course is the first step towards a professional sailing career.

Even if you plan to sail recreationally you will benefit from the professional approach, technical skills, and best practice taught at Flying Fish.

The shorebased syllabus in Part 1 includes: Vessel familiarisation / Chartwork / Navigation and pilotage / Rules and regulations / Safety and seamanship / Food safety and hygiene on board / Basic yacht maintenance / Diesel engine maintenance / Marine radio techniques / Weather forecasting.

While living on board you learn the skills of Competent Crew and Day Skipper and put your navigation theory into practice. You visit the main ports in the Solent and some quiet hideaway anchorages, as well as making trips along England's South Coast or across to France and the Channel Islands. Towards the end of the course you will experience working in a watch system.

Part 1 includes five days of STCW95 Basic Safety Training, qualifying you to work commercially anywhere in the world.

The STCW95 programme covers: Simulated emergencies / First aid at sea / Sea survival techiques / Safety and social responsibility / Fire prevention and fire fighting.

On completing Part 1 you will be an accomplished, well qualified crew member with a practical understanding of the principles of sailing a yacht. You will be growing confident in the role of skipper in sheltered waters and have experienced some short offshore passages, including at least two of sixty nautical miles.

During the course you will achieve a list of useful qualifications, including radio operator and first aid certificates, required to enter an RYA Yachtmaster exam, and STCW95 certificates to support your commercial endorsement as MCA/RYA Master of Yachts 200gt.

Master of Yachts Part 1 is designed as a foundation course before Parts 2, 3 and 4. For a complete training programme, leading to Yachtmaster Offshore or Yachtmaster Ocean qualification, please search again and select one of our Yachtmaster/Master of Yachts Traineeships.
