On-the-water Yacht & Boat Training

At Pier One Yacht Sales we know that boat ownership comes with the responsibility of having the proper training to safety operate a vessel on the water. We want to help our clients get the necessary training so they can live their dreams on the water no matter the type or size of boat they've purchased.

Training is provided on your yacht/boat with a Certified USCG Captain

Yacht Training

These classes are for Yachts 35 ft - 100+ ft and are usually conducted aboard the client's yacht over multiple days.

By taking our Basic Powerboat Cruising & Inshore Powerboat Cruising courses, you'll be able to apply for the International Proficiency Certification (IPC) for Yachts, which is required to charter boats in European waters.

Our Instructors will travel to you if you own a yacht but arrangements can be made if you don't.
