Designed in conjunction with the Professional Yachting Association this course is intended to build on a candidate’s basic powerboating knowledge and skills.

Attendees will gain confidence in their ability to manoeuvre a powerboat more smoothly. The emphasis is on learning important skills in day and night pilotage and passenger carriage and management. This course is very useful for anyone operating a powerboat day or night with responsibility for carrying passengers. The course includes plenty of time to practice working with a crew member and operating short-handed.

Candidates will practice and become familiar with pilotage for short passages from ship to shore, both day and night.

This course is valuable for Superyacht Crew, leisure sailors and those working in the winder maritime industry.
