Recommendations for RYA schools to do the Yachtmaster Offshore (YM) certificate.

[SailingUwe]

Dear Forum, I am looking for recommendations of RYA schools to do a Yachtmaster Offshore Certificate.

Can you recommend a school which does offer courses during July and August? Ideally they should be located around the Mediterranean Sea or generally around Europe.

Do you have good experience or just came across an advert? Would like to hear from you!

Thanks,
Uwe

I did mine YM in Gibraltar. I think there is only one school there.
Was very good experience.

IMHO (based on my experience going all the way to YM in the UK, IYT Coastal YM training in the US and looking at non-UK RYA schools) if you want the real deal in RYA training you have to get it in the UK, ideally in the winter.

I had a great experience with Walter and Mike at Costa Blanca Sailing.

Spend some time in Alicante, see the VOR headquarters, you will enjoy it.
