Frequently Asked Questions

  1. Do I need my Small Powerboat & RIB Master certificate commercially endorsed?

The IYT “Master of Yachts” and the IYT “Small Powerboat & RIB Master” certificates do not require any kind of “commercial endorsement” as they are already commercial certificates.

The MCA has already recognized 3 levels of IYT Master of Yachts Certificates and the Small Powerboat and RIB Master Certificate as “Commercial” in their own right of training. They are as follows

  • Master of Yachts Coastal/Mate 200 gross tons and Master for vessels <24m
  • Master of Yachts Limited <200 gross tons
  • Master of Yachts Unlimited <200 gross tons
  • Small Powerboat and RIB Master

The “Yachtmaster” certificates issued by the Royal Yachting Association (RYA) are recreational certificates and these certificates definitely require a “commercial endorsement” if one wishes to work commercially.
