Want to sail across oceans and feel like a navigation wizard? The RYA Yachtmaster Ocean Theory course is here to transform you from a coastal cruiser to a celestial-savvy captain. You’ll unravel the mystique of the sextant, using it to pinpoint your position like an ancient mariner. You'll also dive deep into worldwide weather wizardry, mastering everything from storm-avoiding meteorology to route-planning secrets hidden in pilot books and charts.

But it’s not all stargazing and spreadsheets. The course tackles vital ocean life lessons like managing fuel, food, and frazzled crew members. Plus, you’ll get the lowdown on modern tech—because why not pair your sextant with satellite weather apps?

With this course, you're ready to sail into the horizon, turning theory into action. Already a Yachtmaster Offshore? Then you’re one step closer to earning your Ocean Certificate—and eternal ocean freedom. 🌊
