How he can get captain licence in England ?

Post by yngyachting »

Hello,
My cousin wants to buy used sailboat from England.
Do you have any idea about how he can get captain licence ?
How long it keeps to get ?
His sailboat will be 55-57ft. (bareboat )
thanks

You don't need any licence to own and operate a boat in UK waters.
