If you can already sail, but don't have a piece of paper to prove your ability, then the International Certificate of Competence (ICC) is just the ticket! If you're planning on sailing abroad or joining us on a Greek Ionian sailing holiday you'll need your ICC.
It's an internationally recognised qualification and something you may be asked to show when your overseas - a little bit like a driving license. It shows that you have the know-how to charter yachts or join a flotilla.
You can take the assessment with us for just £199 per person on your next sailing holiday departing from Vounaki Beach Club.
Please note, we are unable to present you with the ICC certificate as we can only carry out the assessment in resort. You will need to send the form to the RYA as they are the governing body in the UK and can issue the certificate. You are not qualified until you have the official ICC certificate on your person, so you will need another accepted qualification if you wish to go on flotilla with us immediately following your ICC assessment.
Do you have crew members without an ICC? If so, and they are looking to qualify their sailing skills this can be done on the final day of your skippered flotilla holiday.
You’ll need to head back to base a day early with your yacht and crew, then on the final day of your flotilla, an instructor will jump on board and take you through the assessment.
It’s all quite straightforward and all being well, you’ll be able to send away for your certificate on return to the UK.
You can pre-book your ICC assessment before departure or book once in the resort. The ICC is £199 per person for the assessment plus £47 for the certificate, payable to the RYA). If you’re a member of the Royal Yachting Association (RYA) there is no charge for the certificate.
