Stewardess
can be included as a module of the crew training course.

This is the best course to get into the hospitality and administration side of megayachts, where the opportunities are just as lucrative and exciting as for deck crew. Run in parallel with the International Career Crew Training course above, it includes all the basics for crewing. In the third week of the course you break away for a week to specialize for the position of hostess or stewardess instead of the serious physical and practical sailing stuff. Includes the essential STCW '95 Basic Safety Training.

Approved Engine Course
MCA Recognised

We are the only academy in the southern hemisphere that provides the AEC - the basic qualification you need for a career as an engineer in the megayacht industry. This is also essential if you wish to proceed to higher engineering qualifications. As a Captain or Engineer of a smaller yacht you'll find your job prospects greatly enhanced with AEC qualification plus a Deck Officer certification (the basic 4 week course) on your CV.

We are currently developing further engineering modules starting with the MEOL Oral Preparation followed by the balance of the shore based courses for Y4 certification. Please email us at info@pyt.co.za so we can advise you as soon as these are ready.
