Power Boat Training
Power boating - RYA levels 1 & 2 (Tidal)
This course is an introduction to power boating and is run using the club safety craft. It is aimed at complete beginners and by the end of the course you will have covered all practical and theory requirements to safely pilot a powerboat in protected waters.
You will get opportunity to learn skills both on planing and displacement craft. Subject to suitable progress you will gain your powerboat level two (tidal endorsement) which enables you to apply to the RYA for your ICC (International Certificate of Competence). This is a requirement to use a power craft in Europe.

Safety Boat Course
This is a weekend course for the experienced powerboat handler who provides safety cover for water sports activities.
Training covers rescue techniques for dinghies, canoes and windsurfers leading to the RYA Safety Boat Certificate.
The RYA Powerboat Level 2 Qualification or an equivalent is a prerequisite, preferably with a further season’s experience.
This course is being put on primarily for existing safety boat crews to upgrade the quality of safety boat cover for SYC dinghy racing and Sailability training, and these skippers will be given priority in booking for this course.
