POWERBOAT COURSES
The RYA Powerboat level 2 is the best all round RYA powerboat course for all entry levels. Whether you’ve just purchased a new boat, want to develop your existing skills or want to gain your ICC then look no further than RYA powerboat Level 2. From boat handling to theory, this course is sure to give you a good foundation in boating.
On completion of the RYA powerboat level 2 course you can take advantage of chartering one of our bare boat charter boats to apply your skills independently.
BARE BOAT RIB CHARTER
Why not charter a boat with us and develop your new boating skills on your own or on an assisted charter? New students that have completed a RYA Powerboat level 2 course with us can book a bareboat charter and enjoy a 20% discount on published full day rates.
All you need to undertake a bareboat charter or assisted charter is a valid RYA Powerboat Level 2 certificate.
VHF DSC COURSE
The only legal requirement for boating use in the UK, is the VHF radio operators license. If you want to study this as a sole qualification you can choose to take a classroom based option or our new online RYA VHF radio course with virtual radio simulator to study in your own chosen time.
