PYT - Professional Yachtmaster Training

MCA Recognized, World Leading Superyacht Academy - PYT. www.pyt.co.za

PYT has come a long way from its humble beginnings around a dining-room table in Durban, South Africa in September 2000 when its assets were a 34' sailboat and a computer. With the help of a dedicated team of instructors and administrators the PYT facility in Durban has grown into a world-class maritime academy for both professional and leisure seafarers. We offer courses approved by South African

Sailing, South African Maritime Safety Authority, International Yacht Training Worldwide and the British Maritime and Coastguard Agency. PYT is ISO 9001 quality management system accredited which is audited annualy by the South African Bureau of Standards. Word-of-mouth is our biggest advert by far and we have become known for quality instruction, high standards and a personal approach. Once people have become part of the PYT family they tend to return year after year for their next level of training. FORT LAUDERDALE:
PYT reached a milestone in April 2013 when our subsidiary, PYT USA, was granted a licence to offer IYT Worldwide courses in Fort Lauderdale, Florida thereby allowing us to bring our special style of teaching to one of the main centres of the super yacht industry. CAPE TOWN:
Our PYT Cape Town office and lecture facilities are situated within the picturesque village of Hout Bay, a short drive from the centre of Cape Town. This little town is steeped in maritime history and is still the centre for a very active commercial fishing industry. There are many tour operators running sightseeing, diving and fishing charters out of the harbour and the local yacht club has a very active recreational boating scene. Our premises are within easy walking, cycling or driving distance of many pubs, side walk cafes and restaurants, shops and tourist attractions, which draw thousands of international tourists each year to this little town. The harbour where our boats are moored, as well as the bay and coastline alongside which most of our practical boating takes place, is one of the most beautiful and scenic areas within South Africa. All of this, along with people who are striving to deliver quality professional instruction makes this, what must certainly be, one of the finest places to do your courses. http://www.pyt.co.za/cmsCategorys.asp?Category=PYT+-+DURBAN&CHS=2&ID=16&CLID=4&LID=1&T4=3#PYT - DURBAN

Hey there

We’re currently busy with an overseas recruitment drive focused on employing Deckhands to operate our fleet of high-speed passenger vessels (ferries) in Auckland NZ. To be considered for the role of Deckhand one needs a qualification transferrable to that of QDC by Maritime NZ and it seems like the Officer of The Watch (OOW) certification aligns

Here is a link to the advert: https://fullersgroup.bamboohr.com/careers/188 (also live on Pnet).

Would highly appreciate any assistance you can provide.

Kind regards/Dankie,
Shawn
