RYA Coastal / Yachtmaster Theroy Course>


The Coastal/Yachtmaster theory course is the level required for RYA Coastal Yachtmaster, RYA Yachtmaster offshore practical certificates and is a pre course requirement for the RYA Yachtmaster Ocean Theory course.

The course is made up of detailed lessons, most of which are animated for easy learning. Each lesson is followed by a set of questions which you can answer online. Once an answer is submitted the feedback is instant in the form of a detailed answer page. Some answers will be forwarded to your instructor who will provide personal feedback and help where required.

For piece of mind you will be allocated a dedicated RYA Yachtmaster who can be contacted by phone or email to answer any questions you have or provide that extra little bit of support you require.

You can book your course on line and be working straight away on the sections where the RYA pack is not needed. Your RYA pack, containing your charts, RYA almanac, RYA course notes, plotter and dividers will be posted first class post the same day.
