The aim of the ICC is to provide boat owners and people wishing to charter boats abroad with an internationally recognised document certifying their competence to skipper a boat for recreational use. It is the qualification needed to charter a yacht in Europe.

To achieve the qualification, it requires one day of classwork, an exam and a practical assessment. The course will be run by Yachtmaster Instructor, John Leahy.

The Boathouse Team

After two years as Commodore of Ireland's largest yacht racing club that runs over 1,000 races each summer, Ann Kirwan completed her term in office at DBSC and handed over the tiller to Eddie Totterdell after his election as Commodore.

Congratulations to both Ann, for steering DBSC in troubled times during the pandemic, and to Eddie for his appointment.

We all look forward to another successful season in 2023!
