What you can expect

Our professional reputation and experience, a comfortable and relaxed atmosphere, thorough and well run courses and value for money.
Generous practical time on the water. We give you plenty of time to learn the skills you need plus you get the benefit of extensive local knowledge. I used to patrol these waterways – day and night – so you will be very well trained.
Easy to follow comprehensive training courses designed to accommodate everyone from the first time boatie to the more experienced.
An excellent online learning course – at no upfront cost – where you study in your own time and at your own pace.
A theory refresher session with the trainer before you are asked to do the theory assessment multi choice questions.
A “Safe Boating in Queensland” Workbook to keep for future reference.
Small practical class sizes – less pressure for our students – and more time to practice your skills. We can seat 6 students plus the trainer but usually limit the number on the boat to 4.
A 5.35 metre bowrider speedboat with full bimini for shelter. There is comfortable seating for up to 7 and it is powered by a Mercury 115hp outboard motor.
For those doing the jet ski licence course, we run a Kawasaki Ultra LX jet ski, renowned for handling, ride, stability and simplicity of controls.
