The PYC Satori Safety at Sea training course is a one-day event: a Gulf Offshore workshop and a Hands-on training course. An optional hands-on training course concludes the following day.
Only people who have completed their US Sailing Sanctioned Offshore Safety at Sea course (online or in person) within 365 days prior to the date of our course, can attend a hands-on training to upgrade their certificate to an International Offshore Safety at Sea. If they are outside of the range, they will have to retake the course either online or in person.
Enrollment includes a code to take the online course for attendees who have not completed the on-line course or completed a US Sailing sanctioned Offshore Safety at Sea course. US Sailing will provide the codes to PYC who will in turn distribute the code to their attendees.
Attendees who complete the prerequisites and hands-on training will receive a World Sailing compliant US Sailing International Offshore Safety at Sea Certificate.
