RYA Powerboat Courses
Powerboating offers the best of both worlds, the leisurely pace of a gentle cruise and the thrill of zipping across the open water. RYA training will give you the confidence and skills to handle the boat safely and enjoy your time on the water, whatever your pace.
As well as courses for recreational boaters, RYA powerboat certificates are also used by professional open powerboat skippers who need to prove their competence or require professional qualifications for work.
So whether you use powerboats for leisure, work, or in connection with another activity such as sailing or rescue, we have a course for you.
