ICC International Certificate of Competence

» The ICC is required by most European countries, as evidence of basic competence

» Within the RYA scheme it falls just below the level of Day Skipper practical

» If you hold the Day Skipper practical certificate you can apply for the ICC without any further tests

» If you do not hold the Day Skipper certificate you will then have to carry out a simple test of basic boat handling, navigation and knowledge of the collision regulations to gain the ICC ticket
