This First Aid + Marine Medicine course is for racing yachtsmen and highly recommended for all who venture offshore under power or sail.
Most yachtsmen and women undertake basic first aid training as a precaution against the inevitable accidents at sea. But we are only taught how to stabilize a patient until the ambulance arrives, usually within 11 minutes for accidents ashore.
At sea, using Radio Medical, the response time for a medivac is 3 hours.
Our course is an online pre-learning, plus one full day of quality instruction.
