We are pleased to offer extended passages which fulfill the criteria for Yachtmaster Ocean qualifying passage.

We can offer berths on an Oyster 55 which is MCA coded for Ocean use. 
The course starts with 1 - 2 days of planning, boat/system checks and victualling. Candidates will be actively involved throughout this process. The passage will include a min of 600 nautical miles (96hours) non-stop, 150 nautical miles of which will be a minimum of 50 miles offshore.

Generally there are 3 available legs heading North to Norway from the Canary's in Spring and the same number returning in Autumn. All these passages satisfy the criteria for Yachtmaster Ocean qualifying passage and you will have the opportunity to collect the necessary sights. These observations will be required as evidence on which the examiner may test you.  

On your return and at your leisure, you will need to present your sights to an indpendent RYA examiner who will interview you on your celestial workings and may include a paper examination to complete. This will be a rewarding and memorable voyage on an amazing boat.

Why do it aboard anything else?? 

You may also join this course for mileage or even just for fun if you would like the experience of ocean sailing aboard a quality ocean going yacht. 

The price includes all meals aboard but does not include flights/transfers
