Qualifying Passages
Candidates must account for 50 days at sea covering a minimum of 2500nm of which 1250nm must have taken place in tidal waters or their equivalent (i.e. Great Lakes) in a vessel not greater than 500gt. Candidates must have completed at least 5 passages over 60nm in length, acting as skipper for at least 2 of those passages on a vessel or vessels which do not exceed 24m in length. 2 of the 60nm passages must be overnight. Those candidates in possession of a YM for power may be able to reduce these requirements by half. All Sea Time and qualifying passages must have taken place within 10 years of the exam date. On the next tab you'll provide further details for all passages greater than 60nm.
