We offer all MCA Master and RYA Yachtmaster courses at our yacht training centres in Antibes, Palma & Viareggio.
This is a command course and concentrates on management level issues in navigation.
The first week is theoretical and concentrates on matters such as passage planning, full knowledge of the COLREGS, radar theory, ARPA theory, advanced radar plotting, and ECDIS.
In the second week students are placed in a series of exercises in one of our radar simulators (in Biot or Palma) of mounting complexity. They will be expected to improve their performance over the week.
Assessment: Continuous in-course assessment, 2 ˝ hour written examination and practical simulator assessment. (a pass is valid for 3 years)
