Assessment is continuous throughout all courses. The instructor may, at his/her discretion, require a practical assessment of boat handling skills and/or a written paper or oral interview
These courses are provided to HYC members who in return are required to agree to be rostered for Rescue and Mark Laying during the sailing season.
