Emergencies occur at sea! even to the
most experienced sailor, out on the water help may be hours or even days away.
An emergency situation at sea is quite different from one on the land when help
is readily available. The following courses will enable you to deal with an
emergency until the rescue services arrive.
THE RADIO VHF/RT. D.S.C. SRC. Course.
The VHF/RT gives us the opportunity to
contact other vessels and Coastguard Radio Stations by means of the Radio
Telephone (RT). Coastguard Radio Stations sited around the coastlines of all
countries are on watch 24.hrs a day, every day of the year. When assistance is
required or an emergency occurs, the Coastguard Radio Stations are always on
hand to advise and help. No sensible person puts to sea without a VHF/RT. and
knows how to operate it correctly; the course for you is listed below.

ELEMENTARY
FIRST AID COURSE.
(STCW

Professional medical assistance may not be
available for some time at sea. It is our responsibility to help ourselves
until medical assistance arrives. Some basic First Aid training can make the
difference between life and death, or permanent serious injury. This course
satisfies the requirements for the Yachtmaster certificate and the Passenger
boat (day angling licence). The
internationally recognized (STCW) certificate
is issued on completion of this course.
