Most of the course is held in the Ipswich area and delegates typically stay in local guesthouses, bed and breakfasts, short-term rentals or even aboard their own yachts in one of the local marinas. We can provide an accommodation list.
The course is designed for marine industry professionals wishing to study how to survey yachts and small craft. The course concentrates on surveying and testing techniques, general principles of assessment and guidance on reporting in relation to FRP and metal craft. Shorter specialist courses are also held on wooden vessels and MCA coding of commercial vessels.
Our main course is the Yacht and Small Craft Survey Course. This provides practical training in the skills and techniques needed to survey small craft. The first two weeks cover GRP and steel vessels and are followed by a week's private study and directed learning, then a further two weeks are spent on small craft systems, rigs and engineering. The course is very intensive and we have found this break to be essential. With two tutors on the course and a maximum of eight delegates we ensure every individual receives intensive practical tuition. Most of this takes place out of the classroom aboard a large variety of boats under actual survey conditions. We also have strong links with Fox’s boatyard, using their engineering, rigging and GRP workshops to demonstrate typical repairs, and with Fox’s Yacht Sales which allows us access to a wide range of pleasure craft. We also work with Oyster Marine, Gunfleet Yachts and a wide variety of local repair yards.
Delivered in partnership between the National Maritime Training Centre at North Kent College and Lloyd’s Maritime Academy, the course continues to be the ideal professional development course for existing ship managers, prospective ship managers and for those who work alongside the ship management sector. more
