The aim of the IYT (International Yachtmaster Training) Sail and Powerboat Coaching System is to encourage high standards of seamanship and navigation. IYT training is widely respected and is considered by many as the best sail training scheme in the world. Many yachtsmen and women purposely choose the IYT system because of its International reputation.
In Asia there is a demand for high quality sail training and qualifications. The IYT training system comprises a series of complimentary Recreational Courses. These courses are practical and shore based courses, for which, course completion certificates are awarded. You can enjoy them simply to increase your knowledge and confidence or use them as a progression to further IYT Certification and thereby enable students to participate in Sailing Expeditions to outlying islands in the Andaman Sea.
International Schools are invited to review our training courses, which we believe are ideally suited to teaching youngsters how to sail.
