  • "As a 30 year yacht veteran, I have relied mostly on the idea of 'it's a who you know' industry, but as the constantly changing certification & litigation requirements become more complex, there is no doubt that the excellent service & support the PYA offers to every level of crew member makes membership an absolute must have! When my crew need support & correct advice, I always refer them to the PYA."
     

  • "Thank you very much for being here, so we do not feel alone in our problems."

  • "I will continue to tell my friends about the PYA. You have been a fabulous support, and I would highly recommend anyone joining the yachting industry to sign up."

Sea Service Verification for non-members

If sea service is submitted to the MCA without having been verified there will be significant delays in the issue of your NoE or CoC. Even if you are not a member, the PYA can verify your testimonials on a pay as you go basis.
