Thanks, very useful. I find “navigating” maritime courses, requirements and qualifications pretty difficult, but this was a good overview.
Glad it was helpful!
This video was incredibly helpful. Thank you very much!

Many thanks.
You are welcome!
ICC is available for just Helmsman course (Power and up to 24 m )
Correct! But not on it's own. You would also need an RYA Day Skipper Shorebased certificate.
that's interesting. Is it because Helmsman certificate doesn't cover Coastal and Inland waters but only Power? And what if a person has, for instance, only Helmsman and CEVNI test passing?
@@trojanske_hesten There is a good document which shows what combinations of course completion provide eligibility to get an ICC. If you take a look at this document, you basically need a tick in both list A and list B. And the column within those lists the tick is for details if the ICC is for Sail/Power/Coastal/Inland etc.

Hi There, I have colour blindness but I would like to complete some practical exams, is it ok to have assistance with colour identification for bouyage and lights? Do the RYA have any specific guidance or policy you could refer me to about this matter ? Thank you.
Hi, you should be able to complete these courses without too much difficulty as buoyage and lights use a combination of colours and sequences. So even if you can't see the colour, if you can see the sequence (e.g. flashes once every 5 seconds), you will still be able to identify it. You shouldn't have a problem. You can actually even get a commercial skippers licence whilst colour blind, though you have to go take a special test with the MCA to prove you can still identify buoys.
@@ardent-trainingI thought red and green were the same shade if colour blind? Is this not a risk at night?
@@vajindertaak3158 It is, but buoyage is not solely identifiable by colour, the sequence a light flashes means it can be identified even without colour. IRPCS can be more difficult as the red and green lights are fixed, not flashing. But the MCA have independent tests which can be taken to prove you can still navigate safely even with some colour blindness.
Ultimately it depends on the severity of your colour blindness as to how much you can do, but in any circumstance, you will be given the opportunity to prove you can navigate safely even when colour blind.
