RYA Powerboat Level II
2 Days
R 5 000.00
Not only do we teach the full RYA syllabus of this internationally accredited license (for power boats under 9 meters), but we also add super yacht skills to make this course applicable for the industry. Our very expensive training equipment simulates pressure even during the training phase, as some of the speed boats and semi-rigid boats on yachts can be in excess of US$ 2 000 000! Our experienced instructors teach students the key aspects, skills and tips of tender driving. During training, we focus on super yacht specific skills expected of crew driving the tender. We also focus on teaching crucial navigational and key safety elements relevant to the super yacht industry.
This course is a great add-on for crew in an effort to making their CVs attractive and themselves as marketable as possible to find employment on a yacht. Super Yacht guests are regularly ferried between the yachts and the shore, and it is essential to hold a license for this rigid inflatable boat (RIB) before you can drive the yacht’s tender. This two-day course covers all aspects of RIB driving, close quarters handling, planning manoeuvres, man overboard recovery, collision regulations, launching, fueling, etc. and on successful completion, the students are issued the RYA Powerboat Level II Certificate.
