Fastrack Sailing Course

Allabroad Yachtmaster Training Established in 1999

The winning formula did not happen overnight!  We have been delivering RYA Yachtmaster training courses for 18 years.  During this time we have fine tuned our approach by carefully analysing our trainee Yachtmasters' feedback but also feedback from the RYA Yachtmaster examiners, and our highly experienced team of full Yachtmaster instructors.

Experience is key.

We achieve a consistently high Yachtmaster offshore pass rate by choosing the very best FULL Yachtmaster instructors and making sure our fast track guys spend at least 10 weeks with a Full Yachtmaster instructor, at the low ratio of 4 trainees to one instructor.  There is no substitute for experienced Full Yachtmaster instruction and smaller group sizes.

Location Location Location

We are Gibraltar based but most, if not all, your Yachtmaster passage making will be in the waters of Portugal and Spain. The tides and shipping traffic of the Gibraltar straits are comparable to the UK, and the bay of Gibraltar is a 24 hour service station of the seas with one of the worlds busiest container ports in Algeciras; the constant bunkering makes for a great place to practice night drills. 

Low ratio training is essential

Fast Track Yachtmaster is about 75% hands on training so if there are too many people on each yacht you will not get the experience you need to get to grips with sailing a yacht.  We keep our Yachtmaster practical training sessions to 4 students to one Yachtmaster instructor, you will be actively navigating and taking responsibly for the yacht, as a Yachtmaster from day one.

......Commercial Yachtmaster skipper training courses from Allabroad are far from a holiday, we were working 6 days a week for the first 5 weeks, it is hard work at first but like most things in life, you only get out what you put in....

Allabroad offer you the newest training Yachts in Gibraltar and is the only school in Gibraltar with actual shore based facilities holding both RYA and MCA accreditation to deliver not just Yachtmaster training but the STCW Basic Safety Training, essential for the Professional Yachtmaster.
