Due to the extra experience and autonomy needed when working away from the centres own base:
Own boat powerboat courses up to Level 2 may, with approval from RYA Training, take place at another location. The instructor in these cases must be a Powerboat Advanced Instructor.
Own boat tuition for all courses in the Yachtmaster scheme may also take place in another location, with approval from RYA Training. In these cases the instructor must be a Yachtmaster Instructor Sail or Power, as appropriate.
Note: The approval of own boat tuition away from your recognised site is intended to facilitate existing students being able to obtain own boat tuition from a centre or instructor they have built a relationship with. It intended to compliment normal RYA tuition on centre-own and operated vessels. It is not intended to form a major part of a centre's business. No centre may use own boat tuition as its core means of course delivery.
