Please Note: We are not able to offer this course at Miramar Sailing School, but can arrange for it to be taken as a one day course as an individual module within the STCW 10 at our associate MCA Training Centre in Antigua. These courses are held regularly, and usually start on the first Monday of each month.
First Aid is a pre-requisite for any RYA/MCA Yachtmaster qualification.
The RYA/MCA do not accept any First Aid Certificate. Please see here for a list of Unacceptable certificates.
This course covers all the usual first aid subjects, but from a boating perspective. It is aimed at anyone who goes afloat, whether on inland waters, rivers, and estuaries, or on cross channel passages.
In a medical emergency a little first aid knowledge and immediate action can save lives, especially in remote locations. This one-day course is designed to provide a working knowledge of first aid for people using small craft and to support skippers. It fulfills the requirements for:
- Skippers of small craft working within 60 miles of a safe haven, including Boatmasters.
- Senior First Aid certificate needed by offshore racers subject to ISAF’s regulations on first aid training (OSR 4.08.4)
The course is recommended by the MCA and HSE.
