The VHF Radio course is essential for everyone! A VHF Radio is an essential item of safety kit and thus taking a VHF course to ensure that you know how to use it is key.

It is somewhat ironic that to helm a high powered powerboat or yacht in the UK you don't need any form of licence or qualification, yet to use its VHF radio you need a licence for the set and to sit an exam to gain your Radio Operators Certificate/Licence.

This is a one day course and simply tends to be known as the VHF Course. The VHF SRC course/exam leads to the new Short Range Certificate (SRC) and covers the new Global Maritime Distress and Safety System (GMDSS Course). This subject is too large to go into the level of detail we would like to on this site so please contact us for further information.

Unlike most other RYA Sea schools we do not use unrealistic computer simulators, but have invested in a full set of DSC radios (with the transmitters removed). This means you are learning on real and state of the art equipment. Our classroom is fitted with ICOM DSC simulator sets.
