On my recent Sea Survival Course there where few voulenteers, most where pressed men.
Most where intent on taking part in the Fastnet Race. It's compulsory for, I think a percentage of, crew members to take such a course.
The bulk of the remainder were either getting commercial endorsements or instructors qualifications. Again it's a must have.
Two guys are rowing the Atlantic in one of Chay's adventures. They had to do it.
Three of our number, farther and two grown sons, needed the qualification to run their Spanish jet ski business. They where as mystified as the rest of us as to where you keep your liferaft on a jet ski but the course gets them a tick in the right box.
So is compulsory training sneeking closer as third party organizations demand qualification for you to take part in their activities?
