YACHTMASTER FAST-TRACK (UK)
GYT's Yachtmaster Fast-Track course is designed to get you up and running in the yachting industry in as short a time as possible.
The comprehensive training programme designed by industry experts and RYA Trainers has all the elements required if you are looking for a career as a Yacht Skipper or Superyacht Crew
The GYT Yachtmaster Fast-Track course is all UK based and run from our training base here in Cowes.
During the programme you can expect to spend around 50 days on the water honing your skills on yachts and small craft, gaining experience in close quarters boat handling as well as gaining miles and skippering experience on the two mile-builders. During the mile-builders you will visit ports in France, the South Coast of England, the Channel islands and Scilly isles.
The RYA/MCA Yachtmaster Offshore Certificate allows the holder to skipper a yacht up to 24m in length and up to 150 miles from a safe haven. If you add STCW Basic Safety Training, then the certificate is valid on yachts over 24m and up to 200 gross tonnes.
You could find work as a flotilla skipper, delivery skipper, or with the addition of an RYA instructors ticket become a sailing instructor working around the world. Superyachts is another avenue and a fast growing sector in the marine industry or maybe a job on a race yacht taking part in regattas around the world.
