A VHF Marine Radio whether handheld or fixed enables communication with coast stations, port/harbour authorities and with other vessels. This form of communication is an important piece of safety equipment and it is vital to understand the correct procedures.
The RYA VHF Marine Radio Course is 1 day’s tuition with 2-3 hours of pre-course reading. Towards the end of the day you will also sit an examination with an external moderator. Please note this is a really full day with timings of 9am – 6pm and only a 30 minute lunch break, plus a couple of short comfort breaks. A packed lunch is recommended. Check in time is 8.50am.
The Short Range Certificate (SRC) is the minimum qualification required by law to control the operation of VHF and VHF Digital Selective Calling (DSC) equipment on any British flagged vessel voluntarily fitted with a radio. This includes both fixed and hand held equipment using International channels.
“Our modern, well-equipped classrooms provide a comfortable and engaging learning environment, where you can enjoy an informative day alongside like-minded students.”
