A coastal skipper is a yachtsman or woman who has the ability to skipper a yacht in coastal waters by day or night.[1] There is a shore-based course which provides the background knowledge required,[2] a practical course which teaches the skills and techniques required,[1] and a Certificate of Competence.[3]
While the qualification originated in the United Kingdom, the course is taught worldwide.
Recognised sailing Schools authorised to conduct the training can be found on the RYA website.
