Advanced Sea Survival - Yacht Training Course

Training Centres

Duration

3 days

For more information regarding this course, do not hesitate to contact one of our crew training centres.

Advanced Sea Survival covers onboard organisation for emergencies and drills, imaginative onboard training programmes, survival craft, types, lifejackets and immersion suits, actions in survival craft distress communications, rescue boats and launching underway, and man-overboard responses.

This is not an STCW95 course but has been created by the MCA specifically to address the need under the STCW convention, for certificated officers to be trained in the operation of survival craft. The STCW "CPSC&RB" can be used in place of this course if desired. As yachts usually do not carry lifeboats this element has been removed from the course.
