We run the RYA powerboat level 2 courses throughout the year on our own fleet of 6m training ribs with Intermediate & Advanced courses run on either of our 7.2m XSribs or our 8.4m Redbay Stormforce ribs.

All these boats are MCA commercially coded vessels for day and night use up to 20 miles from land, far more than we actually require for these RYA powerboat courses.

We also run a complete range of commercial endorsement skipper training courses and RYA Instructor Training courses.

RYA PWC & Jet Ski Courses

Our 3 new SeaDoo jet ski bikes are permanently afloat on versadock within the marina meaning we can offer the RYA jet ski water craft pwc proficiency course at a fantastic price of just £149 per person which includes use of a school jet ski, wet suits, impact vests and a RYA course completion certificate.

RYA Motor Cruising Courses

We have a fantastic pair of motorboats. Most courses are taught on our trusty Sealine Sc29, but also our flagship Fairline Phantom 40 can be used. Both are available for RYA motor cruising training courses from our fleets base in Southampton's Saxon Wharf marina with accommodation on board included for free on all RYA motor cruising courses.

RYA Sail Cruising Courses Inc Day Skipper

With our own Bavaria 37 cruising sailing yachts moored in Saxon Wharf marina we can offer the full range of RYA sail cruising courses from "Start Yachting", "Competent Crew" the popular "Day Skipper" practical through to the Yachtmaster preparation course.

Their 3 double cabins and large saloon area make sailing the Solent, visiting new harbours and learning new skills a very pleasant experience indeed. We specialise in low ratio student to instructor courses as we feel this offers a more complete experience for very little extra expense.

RYA Shorebased & Theory Courses

Our classroom overlooks Saxon Wharf marina and is only 300 yards from the waters edge. Unit 11 is a warm and safe environment for all shorebased courses including RYA VHF radio, First Aid, Day Skipper Theory, Coastal Skipper & Yachtmaser Theory courses.

The RYA Powerboat level 2 start powerboating course costing from only £199 is very popular for new and improving skippers and also an easy way to gain your international boat license the ICC. We also offer the popular RYA day skipper course for power and sail, also the theory course.
