Commercial Endorsement

The Day Skipper practical and any of the Yachtmaster licences can be commercially endorsed by the RYA thus enabling you to work on commercial vessels. The following wording would appear on your certificate:

For Yachtmaster Offshore and Yachtmaster Ocean Certificates of Competence: This certificate is valid for use as a Master of yachts of up to 200gt on commercially and privately registered yachts until (date of expiry).

In order to apply for the Commercial Endorsement you must also attend a one day RYA Sea Survival course (or the equivalent) undergo a personal medical (form ML5 or ENG 1) and also complete the on-line PPR course. We will be happy to help you with this if required.
