Experience Level - Expert Sailor

From the experience that you have told us about, you are qualified to skipper any Moorings monohull or sail catamaran (within 10 feet of the largest yacht you have previously sailed and denoted in your resume) in the Competent and Advanced level Moorings destinations listed below. 

As you will see from the below table, the skipper of the yacht will be required to show proof of qualifications in Greece, Croatia, Italy, Tahiti, Belize and Seychelles. This must be the original copy of your qualification.  

Although no sailing qualifications are required for cruising in certain destinations, we strongly advise that you take any sailing certification on holiday with you. This may be useful should you be contacted by Customs or Port Police.
