This two-day course provides the skills and background knowledge needed to drive a powerboat and is the basis of the International Certificate of Competence. It includes: • Launching and recovery, • Boat handling, • Securing to a buoy, • Anchoring, • Leaving and coming alongside, • Man overboard • Close quarters handling, • High speed manoeuvres, and • Collision regulations. Following successful completion of the course you should be a self-sufficient powerboater in the right conditions, and aware of own limitations and those of the craft. We recommend this course for everyone who wants to do Safety Boat Duties at the club. This highly subsidised course is open to members at a cost of £40.
Please bring clothing that will keep you warm and that you'd be happy entering the water with such as:
