This course provides the skills and background knowledge needed by the competent powerboat driver and is the basis of the International Certificate of Competence. It aims to teach boat handling and seamanship in powerboats. It focuses on low speed close quarters handling, man overboard recovery, an introduction to driving at planing speed, and collision regulations. The course will be mostly practical-based and take place in our 5.6m RIB.
Objective
The recipient of a Level 2 Powerboat Handling certificate will be a self-sufficient powerboater in the right conditions, aware of their own limitations and those of the craft. They will understand the key principles of powerboating and implement them to good effect.
