At sea, you need to be fully prepared. As an individual and as a team. And as a team with specialists you can really make a difference. To improve your personal skills on board, we invite you to sign up the Advanced Ocean Race training. Our coaches will train with you to master the specific positions on board, in our successful structured training method. Being offshore requires safety certified trained sailors. Check if you need certifications or if they need updating. We strongly recommend you to prepare when joining our Races or Ocean Race Experiences, and mandatory for those enduring the Rolex Fastnet and Rolex Middle Sea Race (OSRcat2 races). For certifications, consider at least: First Aid certification on board (3 year validity), Offshore Personal Survival Training (5 year validity) and VHF certification (lifetime validity). Check our training schedule or ask the Team for assistance.
