With your offshore extension licence, you can sail :
- with any type of boat
- beyond 6 miles from a shelter
Long-distance sailing and crossings are yours.
Training :
The course is open to holders of a coastal license. You will learn how to calculate and plot your course on a nautical chart. You will use the Cras ruler, various types of compass and other traditional navigation instruments. Plot a course, taking into account wind and current drift, and estimate the time of arrival at a waypoint.
Calculate tide times. Learn to be precise, because depending on your draught and the tide, your boat won't be able to pass just anywhere, at any time.
Review marine weather concepts. Check your safety equipment and electronic navigation aids.
Once you're ready, we'll organize your exam session at the Ajaccio seafarers' unit, where your license will be validated.
