Boat – Recreational Marine Driver Licence (RMDL) - Practical Assessment

Jetski – Personal Watercraft Licence (PWCL) - Practical Assessment


I encourage you to drive the boat and jetski  with another licenced skipper before arriving at the BoatSafe course - you may not be confident driving the boat in just one day. I offer training sessions if you don't have friends or family with a boat or jetski that you can practise on. The training sessions should be in the same way that a new driver engage with a car driving instructor.

Some of he activities you should practice are:

  • Man Overboard drill
  • Safely approach a floating object
  • Port and starboard turn, on and off he plane
  • Figure 8 manoeuvre on and off the plane
  • Berthing and unberthing the boat
  • General navigation and control of the boat
  • Operate at 6 knots or less

Small groups help you relax and have more fun on the day. Watch your confidence boost immediately.
