Manly Sailing: IYT Global Partner School
We are very excited to share with you that Manly Sailing is now an International Yachting Training (IYT) Global Partner School. IYT sets the global standard for maritime training and certification.
Nikki, Finn and Xavier at Manly Sailing now offer a broad range of recreational courses to suit everyone and their ambitions – from Try Sailing to the more advanced International Bareboat Skipper certificate.
Manly Sailing can also assess the International Certificate of Competency (ICC), your passport to chartering around the world.
These courses provide a continuous sailing pathway for anyone who is new to sailing, keen to learn
to sail, or wanting to become a safe and competent crew or skipper:
- Get started and learn the basics of crewing and helming on Aqualuna – a small keelboat – with the Australian Sailing Start Crewing and Start Helming courses
- After more time on the water and sailing experience, move onto a larger yacht – Solace – and continue to increase your skills with IYT International Crew.
- Should you wish to skipper a yacht confidently – your own or through charter – take on the more advanced IYT International Bareboat Skipper course. We recommended that you have logged over 200 nautical miles and 10 days at sea before starting this course (certificate cannot be issued without the required sea service).
- Once you have completed the International Bareboat Skipper course and obtained a Long-Range Radio Licence, you are eligible to apply for the International Certificate of Competency (ICC). The ICC is now mandatory in many countries and accepted in others as proof of your competence to charter.
On board Solace, Manly Sailing will also participate in the Manly Yacht Club races and other fantastic sailing regattas like Sail Port Stephens and the Sydney Harbour Regatta, creating some unique and unforgettable sailing experiences.
Please tell your family and friends, and together we will teach more students to become safe and competent crew, skippers and happy sailors!
Next dates: October 23-24th, November 20-21st, & December 4-5th
