It’s normal to have a radio on yacht. But to "normally" use it it’s not enough to know where the switch on button is. It has its own secrets that are worth exploring. Moreover, every self-respecting charter whether in Poland or abroad requires at least one of the crew member hold the SRC certificate as a proof of skill to use short range radio. To obtain such a certificate one must pass the exam. It can be approached without completing a course but we advise to do it more properly by taking part in our training.
