Yachtmaster Offshore passage from Sydney
Yachtmaster Offshore – limited
The RYA/MCA Yachtmaster is recognised all over the work and is seen as the benchmark in professional sailing. The Yachtmaster Offshore, limited to 150 miles from shore is our the most popular course. Customers choose this course if you are planning to work or sail within close to shore
Offshore or Ocean – unlimited
The main difference between Yachtmaster offshore and Yachtmaster Ocean is Astro Navigation, the ability to fix your position using only the sun and stars. You will learn to master Celestial navigation in the classroom before leaving on a 600 mile passage to put what you have learnt into practice

If you are looking for something a little closer to home then we offer shore based training courses as well as practical sailing courses, all out options lead to an RYA or MCA qualification.
