Access to the online course material is terminated immediately. You will not be able to claim a full refund if the course material has been damaged or if you have no proof of purchase. Navathome reserves the right to deduct for the net cost of any missing or damaged course materials and postage.

The student pack will be sent on the next working day and delivery to Europe is included in the course price.

Additional fees may be applied to addresses outside of these areas.

Navathome will not be held responsible for any duty or expenses incurred in the country of delivery.

Course expiry

There is an extendable access period of 6 months set for the course. An admin fee of £30 is charged for each time the course is extended.

If the access lapses it can still be extended anytime within a period of 3 years from the date the access period lapsed.

If a course remains dormant for more than 3 years, (has lapsed and not been extended within a period of three years) it will be terminated and the log in removed.

Once a student has passed the assessment their course is complete and their access terminated.

Internet access

Students must have access to the internet and email to complete the course.

Users

The course is not transferable and access is for the applicant only.

Compatibility

Please check that the free trial runs on your device before booking.

The courses do not use a platform so work on most devices including Ipad, Iphone, PC, Mac, Android etc.

There some issues with the free chart plotter simulator provided by the RYA. It works on PC and Mac but not on mobile devices. It is not essential to the courses so can be worked around if a student does not have access the PC based units.

Pre-course knowledge

Students should be at the correct level for the course being taken. No previous experience is required to take the Day Skipper theory course, Day skipper level theory is required for the Coastal/Yachtmaster theory and Coastal/Yachtmaster theory is required before taking the RYA Ocean theory.

Navathome reserves the right to change a course from Coastal Yachtmaster to Day Skipper if it becomes apparent that the student does not have the required pre course knowledge and the student does not hold a current Day Skipper theory certificate.
