Yachtmaster Sail Fast-track Module 3 Module 3 April 2010 Looking to get your Yachtmaster qualification? Club Yachting offers a unique approach from beginner to Yachtmaster in modules! Just choose the module you wish to do next, ask for our special price to complete all three sequentially or book one module and take the remaining ones within 3 years at the same price. Unlike most other schools our practical weeks are all six days long, as is the week spent in the classroom – which gives you extra time to consolidate before moving on to the next step. Module 3 – To Yachtmaster (Pre-requisites - Coastal Skipper and Yachtmaster Shorebased, Coastal Skipper Practical, VHF (Short Range Certificate)* and First Aid Shorebased Course*, 1720 sea miles, 12 night hours and 20 days sea time) Included with this module is your 1 day Diesel Engine course. If you wish to go on to have your Yachtmaster commercially endorsed you can also take your Sea Survival*. During the Module you will be continually debriefed by our team of permanent Instructors and receive a written report at the end of each week detailing your progress – the good skills and the areas needing improvement. All training is discussed with our principle Andy Williams (himself an RYA / MCA Examiner for Sail, Motor and Powerboat as well as Yachtmaster Ocean). Week 1 Milebuilding (* or Coastal Skipper Practical if taking the Miles and racing Module 2) In order to gain the prestigious RYA Yachtmaster Offshore certificate you will need to have 2500nm (50% tidal) which is why we introduce milebuilding weeks throughout our modules. You will gain the experience of longer passages, often including a watch system and overnight sailing. If you have already completed Module 2 this week is part of a two week milebuilding week. * (Details of the Coastal Skipper course if not completed in Module 2) During the week you will continue to develop the skills learnt during the Day Skipper and Day Skipper plus courses – and further develop them. Course content includes: passage planning, pilotage by day and night, boat handling, safety and emergency situations. At the end of the course you will be able to skipper a yacht on coastal passages by both day and night.)
