Yachtmaster Exercises is a partner to Yachtmaster for Sail and Power, providing extra navigational practice for students, helping them to absorb the course theory.

This revision handbook contains practice exercises and test papers with fully explained answers on all parts of the Yachtmaster course, whether sail or power. This essential guide covers chartwork, tides, pilotage and passage planning, as well as seamanship, anchorwork, ropework and rules of the road.

A free practice chart is included, as well as extracts from tide tables, tidal curves, almanacs and pilotage notes so that students can complete the questions, work on real life sailing scenarios and plot their own courses without the need for any other material.

This revised 5th edition includes the latest updates, new artwork and a modern, user-friendly design. It's an invaluable textbook and exam revision guide for anyone studying for the RYA exams or simply brushing up on their navigation skills.

Alison Noice was a Yachtmaster Instructor and Examiner, and ran Coastal/Yachtmaster and Day Skipper shorebased courses at her local yacht club. Roger Seymour worked closely with Alison for many years, and is Hamble School of Yachting’s senior instructor. He also advises World Cruising Club members embarking on Atlantic crossings and other international rallies.
