RYA VHF SRC 1 Day Training Course

The RYA VHF SRC one day training course is a legal requirement for all water users who intend to use a VHF (Very High Frequency) marine radio. This course is also required before completing any RYA practical exams and to gain a commercial endorsement. With all the safety benefits this makes it the must do course.

The RYA VHF SRC syllabus includes basic VHF operation, the correct VHF frequencies, use of DSC (Digital Selective Calling) and GMDSS (Global Maritime Distress & Safety System), distress, emergency and medical assistance procedures. Our VHF SRC training course includes the use of VHF DSC sets specially modified to allow students to make May Day calls on real equipment to promote realism; without having a rescue helicopter over the classroom! As the VHF qualification is Ofcom regulated a short written test will be completed at the end of the days VHF training.

 

 RYA VHF SRC Training Course Fee Includes:

  • RYA VHF Radio (G22) course notes book - worth £6.50
  • RYA instruction by a specially trained RYA VHF SRC Assessor
  • VHF Radios modified to enable training MAY DAY calls
  • Computer simulators to ensure comprehensive training
  • RYA VHF SRC written test and practical assessment 
  • Refreshments during the RYA VHF SRC training course, but we do not provide lunch

Please note there is a separate fee of £30 charged by the RYA to cover the Ofcom certification on successful completion of this course. This will be taken by our RYA Instructor as a cheque payable to RYA or credit card; no cash will be accepted.
