About YachtCom
YachtCom
has specialised in providing the AMERC/MCA GMDSS Long Range
Certificate and RYA Radio & Radar course for over 18 years from
our training studio in Bursledon, just outside Southampton.
With no sight of the ending to the Covid-19 coronavirus pandemic and social distancing rules,
the decision was taken to close YachtCom.
YachtCom trained a number of both leisure and
professional sailors taking part in some of the world's adventurous
rallies.
