OTHER SIGNIFICANT CHANGES.

Maintaining the renewal of the card every 10 years, upon presentation of a psychophysical examination. Every 5 years after the age of seventy.

Possibility for the competent Administration to carry out the practical examination if legislated to do so.

Practices in inland waters are allowed only for the Navigation Licence, PNB and sailing practices. Sailing practices are unique, so once completed they are valid for all titles, not just PNB. Temporary 6 months.

Nautical schools allow the use of semi-rigid boats only with a sailing license. For the practices of the PNB and the PER the boats must have a minimum length of six meters and 11.50 for the practices of the yacht skipper and yacht captain. They must have an AIS type B equipment with the capacity to extract and export data.

"Titulins" or Federative Licence, issued before the entry into force of the rule will retain their attributions and may be exchanged for the current navigation license upon renewal if they complete 4 hours of practice. However, for this the federations must send to the DGMM, within two months from the entry into force of the rule, the data register of the holders of the current title cards.

The block exam in yacht skipper and yacht captain will be allowed but only during 2 calls, following the one in which the yacht skipper and yacht captain exam is held

The Royal Decree will enter into force three months after publication in the BOE, except for: - The exemption regime that will enter into force the day after publication in the BOE - The forecasts related to the granting of sailing licenses by sailing and motorboating federations and by nautical schools, which will come into force 20 days after publication in the BOE.
