Fastrack and Part Fastrack Courses.

Prospects.

At Allabroad we will endeavour to not only get you your Yachtmaster but to get it for you in style.

Your prospects once you hold a commercial license, gained at Allabroad, are good. You can find employment anywhere in the world and we will help you with references and by contacting our associates in the sailing world.
In addition we have connections with many of the leading companies engaged in charter and deliveries.
Add to this the possibility of an apprenticeship with Allabroad and you get a great all round course with opportunities.

Allabroad is developing a name for not only high pass rates but good quality passes. As that name becomes more and more established it becomes easier and easier for our students to get work.

Previously one of our students had to leave the course at coastal level to take on work. He is returning later to finish off his course..

A first class pass is what both you and we want.


There are plenty of jobs in the industry especially with the new EEC laws on qualifications coming out.

When this happens, and it already is in the Med, there will be a great demand for skippers.

We have developed connections with over 35 companies who employ skippers.

 

Deliveries

Delivery is becoming big business and a delivery skipper is always in demand.
A lot of yachts are delivered to and returned from the Caribbean every year. Along with yachts from the U.K. to the Med and back. There is plenty of work for good skippers in this field and we will put you in touch with the companies that specialise in it.
We will also give you advice on setting up your own delivery company including web site design etc.
The Ocean option is a useful certificate to have if you would like to do this kind of work.

Instructors

We provide the two week cruising instructors course as an extra over course should you wish to take teaching up as anew career.

Good instructors can get work anywhere in the world.

There is great demand for good instructors. We have two of our ex fastrackers working for us now and the feedback we get from clients is excellent. Every year we have trouble getting good instructors and we know other schools in the area have the same problem.

A number of our ex fastrackers are now working in this area.

Charter.

Several of our ex students are now running their own charter business one in Croatia one in Portugal, two in Australia, and one in Norway.
This is quite a good field to get into although there is quite a lot of competition.

Yacht Skipper.

There are more and more jobs for skippers on super yachts. You have to make a name for yourself first and Allabroad gives you a good start towards this. We have a good name ourselves and that is passed on to our students when they have trained here.

A really good super yacht skipper has the world as their oyster.
 

 

Your future is what you make it.

No one can promise you what you have to earn.
It is your skills and personality that will get you respected in the sailing profession.

What we can do is help you to attain the levels required in both sailing and people skills.

If you take the cruising instructor option we can help you develop your own skills and personality. You will learn advanced teaching techniques covering all aspects of passing on information in a informative and personable way.

Allabroad has had many students take the full Yachtmaster Instructors exam in the U.K. with top instructor examiners from the RYA checking them out.
All passed first time yet the pass rate is normally about 50%.

Many of our students have stayed on for a season at Allabroad, gained their miles and experience and with a little more tuition from ourselves attained the full RYA Yachtmaster Instructors Certificate.
