The ultimate disconnect from the trappings of the modern world and the ultimate sense of freedom, or the need to transport a yacht across an open ocean. Either way, the best times I have been on the water are those quiet moments.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe NAVatHOME RYA Ocean Yachtmaster is the ultimate RYA theory course for those with a real interest in serious blue water sailing or for those who wish to master all aspects of the art of navigation, and to find your position with sun and stars. The course teaches the concepts that allow celestial navigation to work. This course is a requirement for those wishing to work on larger vessels, but is great fun for everyone.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn partnership with our sister school we offer the most widely completed RYA Yachtmaster Ocean Course. This course is by far the best Astro Navigation course available. The indepth animations put into perspective the concepts that can not be achieved through classroom presentations or even video tutorials. The animations help to demonstrate what you would be actually viewing as you look through a sextant.\u003cbr\u003e\u003ch5\u003eWho is this course for?\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBluewater ocean Sailors.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThose planning cross ocean passages that are several days away from shore.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAnyone interested in Celestial Navigation.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eCourse Pre-Requisites:\u003c\/h5\u003e\u003cbr\u003eTo enroll in the course you should have at least the knowledge of the Coastal Skipper \/ Yachtmaster Offshore level of theory.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn order to obtain the Yachtmaster Ocean Certificate of Competency, you are required to have obtained the RYA Yachtmaster Offshore Certificate of Competency and have met the passage requirements.
