POWERBOAT - LEVEL 2 is about giving you the basics (boat handling, navigation and safety) to be able to boat safely in areas close inshore undertaking short passages. Its the standard entry point for the vast majority of powerboaters. This is also known as the National Powerboat Course. It is our most popular course and the two days over which it is run gives plenty of time.

DAYSKIPPER PRACTICAL COURSE over the four days you will really focus on not just boat handling but all aspects of planning, executing passages, chartplotters, GPS and radar aspects, and of course, teach you the night navigation and executing a night passage.

We are also offer the following International Certificate of Competence ('ICC') courses that are often considered as the international 'boat driving licence'. Maybe required by countries/operators if you wish to use your own craft abroad or to charter one. Further details can be given upon request.

OWN BOAT Training: An option for those with access to their own craft is to undertake training on that craft rather than a school boat. Either undertaking RYA based courses or we can structure a bespoke course for you addressing the particular areas that you wish to deal with. Often we are able to do a bit of both by spending some extra time within a Powerboat Level 2 course on (for example) the launch and recovery of your new boat or how to get to grips with the chartplotter that you have on board. We are also able to spend time looking at the safety equipment that you have giving impartial advice that can help you make the most of it whilst giving realistic advice on what items you might consider buying. As an added benefit you will find that Own Boat Training is generally more cost effective with the obvious added benefit that by training on your craft 100% of what we cover is relevant to your particular needs.
