Your first hurdle is get your yachtmaster offshore and get your miles logged.
You will then need a first aid qualification and a radio qualification.
The last two can be done for about 200 each over a weekend.

the coastal instructor seems to require the above. Costs are not high about 500. Same for Offshore instructor bit you need about 8000 miles logged.

It seems like anything else - the cost for an exam to be a doctor is about 200 but you will need seven years of experience.

miss no stars

ISAW,

Sunsail need dinghy instructors, too. I get the feeling the OP wants to be a sunsail DINGHY instructor not an offshore instructor
