The ISA Yachtmaster Offshore Shorebased course develops the recreational sailor's ability to skipper a sailing or motor yacht on coastal and offshore passages during daylight and at night.
Shorebased course certificates are course attendence certificates and can only be awarded following successful course completion. Shorebased course completion certificates cannot therefore be issued solely on the basis of assessments completed without course attendence.
General
The Yachtmaster Coastal Shorebased course Certificates are not pre requisites for the Yachtmaster Coastal or Yachtmaster Offshore certificate examinations; candidates for either of these exams are, however, strongly recommended to undertake the relevent shorebased course or courses.
