RYA Coastal / Yachtmaster Shorebased Theory

Earning the Yachtmaster title isn’t just a milestone, it’s a statement. It says you’re ready to lead, to navigate with precision, and to take full command of a yacht in real-world, real-weather conditions. Whether you sail or motor, this programme is designed for confident, experienced skippers who want to raise their game to professional standards.

Your instructor is an RYA Certified Yachtmaster Examiner, the very person who assesses candidates at this level. That means you’re not just training, you’re being expertly prepared for what the examiners actually look for. Who better to train you for the exam than the person who actually conducts it?

During the intensive preparation days, you’ll sharpen advanced navigation, leadership, and seamanship under pressure, by day, at night, and offshore. If you’re serious about going further, commercially or personally, this is your route to recognised mastery.
