This course is preceded by the Offshore Yacht Master C course.
This one-day course prepares you for the theoretical examination at the Czech Telecommunication Office in Prague. Once you pass it, you receive the SRC certificate. At present it is the only certificate that allows you to hire a charter boat, because it also covers the operation of vessels with a DSC (distress) controller. That is no longer true of the former restricted or general radiotelephone operator's certificates. Participants in our course not only prepare for this examination, but also receive a certificate of completion of the practical test, which is a condition for taking the examination at the Czech Telecommunication Office.
The courses are led by Ing. Zdenek Chmelař, a long-standing yachtsman holding a valid Czech Telecommunication Office licence.
