Building\u00a0 their confidence to undertake more challenging coastal passages by day and night.<\/p>\n<p>Like the Day Skipper course, this course consists of skippered passages in a variety of situations. Each trainee will skipper more challenging passages and learn more about passage planning, pilotage by day and night, boat handling, safety and emergency situations.<\/p>\n<p>It is a satisfying but intense week, with candidates often working towards a Certificate of Competence.<\/p>\n<p>It is strongly advised that you sit the Coastal Skipper\/Yachtmaster\u2122 Offshore Theory course beforehand as there is insufficient time to teach you theory during the week.<\/p>\n<p>Coastal Skippers should be able to undertake more difficult passages by day and night and handle the yacht in more demanding conditions.\u00a0 At the successful completion of the RYA Coastal Skipper course you will be awarded the RYA Coastal Skipper Course Completion Certificate and\u00a0should have the knowledge, if not the experience, to become a YachtMaster Coastal.<\/p>\n<p><b>Pre-course experience requirements<\/b><\/p>\n<p>15 days sea time, 2 days as Skipper, 300 miles, 8 night hours.<\/p>\n<p><b>Assumed Knowledge<\/b><\/p>\n<p>Boat handling to the standard of Day Skipper and navigation to shore based Coastal.<\/p>\n<p><b>Minimum Age 17<\/b><\/p>\n<p><b>Course Content<\/b><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Passage planning<\/li>\n<li>Preparation for sea<\/li>\n<li>Pilotage<\/li>\n<li>Passage making and ability as Skipper<\/li>\n<li>Yacht handling under power and sail<\/li>\n<li>Adverse weather conditions<\/li>\n<li>Emergency situations<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>You can also take this course alongside the <a href=\"\/courses\/family-training-cruise-and-confidence-builder\/\">Family Training Cruise and Confidence Builder.<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Next Steps<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>At this stage of the RYA scheme it is really worthwhile consolidating what you have learnt by completing more sea miles.
