Learn to skipper a powerboat, and take charge safely on passages with friends and family, or be able to hire a powerboat in the UK or abroad. You will need this 2-Day RYA PowerBoat Level 2 (Coastal/Tidal) Course if you want to be safe & legal.

You don't need to do the Level 1 first, and no prior experience is required. It's a pretty packed two-days, however, and close-quarters berthing, high-speed, anchoring, mooring, navigation, ropework, emergencies and man-over-board recovery are all part of the course, as well many other safety and operational topics such as launch and recovery are covered.

The courses are 2 Days with Arrival from 0845hrs at our LargsCentre with a max of 3 per power boat. Return is for about 1700hrs and each day is spent on board either on the Firth of Clyde & Islands or Loch Lomond.

Training takes place during the day on a teaching and continual-assessment basis so there is no exam or test. This is designed as an enjoyable powerboating experience with RYA Training.

If you want the skills and confidence to skipper a powerboat in safety, navigate, obey the rules-of-the-road, dock safely without damage or embarrassment, and have the correct international certificates, then the PowerBoat Level 2 / ICC is the standard and certificate you need to have...
