IYT 24M Powerboat License

Certificate Limitations

  • Command of a vessel up to a maximum length of 78 ft /24 metres as part of a flotilla
  • In coastal waters up to 20 miles offshore
  • In fair conditions with moderate wind and sea conditions.
  • Most charter agencies will insist on daylight hours as a condition to charter.

 

The Powerboat Skipper course is a five to six-day course.  This is a certificate of competency for those candidates who wish to skipper a power vessel up to 24 meters in length, in fair weather, and in sight of land.

The “depth of knowledge” required for the theory portion of the Powerboat Skipper Certificate is the same as needed for the International Bareboat Skipper Certificate. Candidates must have logged over 200 miles and 10 days at sea by the end of the course to obtain the Powerboat Skipper Certificate of Competency.

It is the level of competence required when chartering a boat in the Mediterranean or West Indies where there are restrictions in terms of cruising area and distance from the base and the vessel has to be safely moored in a marina or anchored before dark.

Those who obtain the Powerboat Skipper qualification can automatically obtain the “International Certificate of Competency Power <24M” (ICC), provided the student meets the requirements as laid down by the United Nations Economic Commission for Europe.

Entry Standard

  •  Should be 16 years of age or over
  • Candidates with prior experience that equates to competency in Modules 1 – 11 may skip these modules and proceed to Module 12 (VHF-SRC) through Module 25.
  • Candidates who hold a recognised VHF-SRC CoC may skip Module 12 (VHF-SRC)
  • The candidate must have logged over 200 nautical miles & 10 days at sea by the end of the course.
