RYA Offshore Safety (ISAF)

The RYA/ISAF Offshore Safety course provides training for recreational and racing skippers and crew who may encounter rough weather and problems at sea.

It combines two one-day courses- the RYA Sea Survival and the ISAF Offshore Safety course. The certificates awarded conform with the eligibility requirements of section 6.01 of the ISAF Special Regulations for category 0, 1 and some category 2 offshore races.

These regulations require a percentage of the crew to have taken personal survival training.

Full details of the Special Regulations can be found on the ISAF website.
