In a distress situation at sea every second counts – as does the safe handling of distress signal devices.

Signal rockets, handheld flares, smoke signals and signal pistols can be crucial in an emergency for drawing attention to a distress situation and alerting rescue services. The prerequisite is that you know the different signal devices and can handle them safely.

In our SKN Pyro seminar we prepare you specifically for the competence certificate for pyrotechnic distress signal devices – with clear theory, practical instruction and the official examination directly afterwards.

What awaits you:

Types, mode of action and deployment options for pyrotechnic distress signal devices

Legal basis, storage and transport

Safe handling of signal rockets, handheld flares and smoke signals

Handling a distress signal pistol calibre 4

Recognising and correctly identifying ammunition

Safety measures and behaviour in case of malfunctions

Targeted preparation for the theoretical and practical examination

One appointment – training and examination!

The examination is conducted directly after the seminar by the responsible examination board. It consists of a theoretical and a practical part.

Your advantages at a glance:

SKN also includes the specialist knowledge certificate (FKN)

No powerboat licence required

Minimum age: 18 years

Theory and practical instruction

Official examination directly afterwards

Numerous seminar locations throughout Germany

Why SKN instead of just FKN?

The competence certificate (SKN) also covers specialist knowledge for pyrotechnic distress signal devices and additionally certifies the required competence in handling signal weapons requiring authorisation.

It is therefore an important component for skippers and owners wishing to apply for the corresponding weapons licence for a distress signal pistol. The SKN alone does not yet authorise the purchase or possession of a signal pistol.

Who is this seminar suitable for?

For sailors, powerboat operators, skippers, owners, charterers and anyone wishing to learn the safe handling of pyrotechnic distress signal devices and obtain the corresponding competence certificate.

Practical. Compact. With examination on the same day.
