When you challenge a course at the Puget Sound Sailing Institute, you will first take the written examination, which your instructor will grade. If you score at least 80, you and your instructor will then proceed to the practical exam on the water.
During the practical exam, the instructor will not provide any coaching or instruction. They will observe as you demonstrate the required skills for the certification and will also act as your crew, following your commands to assist in operating the boat.
If you challenge multiple certifications, you will need to demonstrate the Standards for each certification but will only have to take the written exam of the highest certification you are challenging. Cost of materials (textbooks, online lectures) are not included.
