Why Choose Allstate Boat Licensing and Training

Hi and thank you for choosing to visit All State Boat Licensing and Training.

You know it would be easy for us to simply tell you about how we are The No.1 Marine Safety Qld Boat Safe approved training organisation.

We could tell you about our great trainers and and a whole lot more, but let us have our happy students let you know why you would want to train at Allstate.

About Us

Allstate Boat Licensing and Training were the first boat licensing organization to be granted Government approval under the new BoatSafe standard. Their approval number is 0001, a fact we are rightly proud of.

This approval required the redesign of the training course modules as well as new documented Operational and Management Procedures. This BoatSafe standard has been a long awaited safety initiative of Maritime Safety Queensland.

Allstate Boat Licensing commenced business in Brisbane some nine years ago, and in that time, have taken the leading role within the industry, providing quality education and training to their customers across the entire recreational boating scene. From humble beginning, the organization now has over twelve training centres State wide with further expansion planned.

Our head office is based in Brisbane Bayside suburb of Manly

The training and licensing areas cover the popular coastal regions of Gold Coast, Sunshine Coast, and through to Tin Can Bay, Gladstone, Rocky, Airley Beach, Mackay, Townsville, Caines and Cape York and also Queensland country locations and extremely remote parts of far North Queensland.

Key factors in this incredible success story has been the determination of the Organization to only have the most qualified course Providers & Assessors delivering course material unequaled elsewhere, and having total customer satisfaction as the foundation of its success.

The measure of this success is gauged by outstanding customer acceptance of our teaching skills and techniques.

Customers can be assured of achieving a sound knowledge of boating operation and safety during the course, which is conducted in a relaxed atmosphere, creating an environment conducive to proper learning.

All age groups are catered for, from fifteen and one half years upwards.

Mission Statement

To enhance safety on our waterways and to support maritime safety Queensland by providing quality education, training, and promoting good seamanship.

How To Get a Licence

From 1 October 2020, the Queensland Government has changed how boaties and jet skiers are trained and assessed for the Recreational Marine Driver Licence (RMDL) and the Personal Watercraft Licence (PWCL). There will be a greater emphasis on training licence candidates until they are sufficiently prepared for their theory and practical assessments, which must be conducted separately. Allstate Boat Licensing & Training supports the government in its efforts to improve boating safety in this way. Our experienced trainers will guide you through the new process through our excellent online training program or our professional and thorough classroom courses (where offered). We will teach you theory such as the rules and regulations on the water, understanding the weather and tides, safety equipment requirements, the buoyage system and emergency management. This will lead to a theory assessment which you must pass before you can participate in practical assessment.

We will train you in or on our safe and comfortable vessels in a relaxed and enjoyable environment. You will be getting lots of time at the controls and we will patiently work with you to develop your skills on the water. Then when you feel you are ready you will be assessed on everything you’ve learnt. Please understand that this may be on a different day.

There are 4 steps you need to complete to obtain your licence. The sequence of these may vary a little in some centres due to tidal limitations or some other local reason but you must pass your theory assessment before being permitted to do your practical assessment.

PRE ENROLMENT

Prior to enrolling for the training you should contact your preferred Allstate centre Trainer to discuss being sent an information pack which may include;

  • Enrolment Form
  • Terms and Conditions
  • Medical Fitness Disclosure Statement and fact sheet
  • Course fee and method of payment
  • Refund policy
  • Literacy and Numeracy Support
  • Available dates and location

STEP 1 Enrol in and complete our online RMDL (boat) or PWCL (jetski) theory training course with no upfront cost OR attend a classroom course (where offered). Please contact your preferred Allstate centre if you have any enquiries.

Theory training must be completed prior to practical boat or jet ski training.

STEP 2 Do your practical RMDL or PWCL training on the water to become competent to complete your practical assessment.

ALTERNATIVE STEP 2 Complete your theory assessment before your practical training.

STEP 3 Once you have completed both the theory and practical training sections, you proceed to your theory & practical assessments which will be conducted to the BoatSafe standards.

STEP 4 You’ve done it! You are now deemed competent to operate a recreational boat or jet ski. Now take your Statement/s of Competency to Queensland Transport within 6 months to obtain your Marine Licence. You are not licensed until you have done this.

  • To obtain a PWC (Jet Ski) Licence you will need to first hold a RMDL (boat) licence or equivalent. The combined RMDL & PWC Licence Course is available at the same time under the same 4 step process.
  • The minimum age to obtain a RMDL or PWC licence is 16. You can attend a course after 15½yo as the statement of competency is valid for 6 months.

STEP 1: THE THEORY TRAINING

The theory training is where you learn the information to be able to get out on the water safely and covers the theory aspects of safe boating & jet skiing to prepare you for the theory assessment. It can be conducted online or face to face in a classroom.

You will need to complete the theory training before you attend the practical training session.

Option 1. The Online Theory

This is the most popular option as it enables you to learn at your own pace and go back over sections until you are comfortable that you understand them. The course includes videos, explanations and quizzes. Theory and Practical Assessments must be completed within a 3-month time frame on successful completion of the Online Theory Course. This is a QLD Government requirement.

Option 2. In-class as face to face training.

Some centres can provide face to face theory training in a classroom if required. You will need to call your preferred Allstate centre to arrange a suitable training date and an extra charge may apply.

THE THEORY ASSESSMENT

After theory training has been completed you will be assessed with a closed book theory exam. This needs to be done in person with us and is normally completed on the day you attend the practical training. The allocated exam time is 45 minutes. In some locations the theory assessment may need to be completed before attending the practical training and assessing.

There are 50 multiple choice questions for the Boat only course

70 multiple choice questions for the combined Boat and PWC course and

40 multiple choice questions for the PWC only course

The pass mark for all multiple choice question MSQ exams is 100%. If any of the questions are answered incorrectly, you will need to undergo further training on those sections with our trainer, at the time you are attending. You will then be given a second attempt at getting 100% on the exam (you will only be required to redo the questions you answered incorrectly).

  • If unsuccessful the student is deemed not yet competent, you can come back to us for further training and reattempt the theory assessment on another day.
  • You will not be able to complete the practical assessment until you have passed the theory assessment.

There is no limit on the number of reattempts you can do, bearing in mind that only 2 attempts on the same day are allowed, and

that you may pay an assessment fee to us on each day you attempt the assessment.

 

STEP 2: PRACTICAL TRAINING – Putting the theory into practice

So it’s time to put the theory into practice. The practical training takes place on one of our vessels and the initial lesson will have you behind the wheel for between 45-60 mins. You will learn how to do a variety of tasks every skipper needs to be able to do such as - person overboard drill, berthing, manoeuvring at low and high speeds, general navigation on water, and emergency stops.

There are 20 different tasks each person needs to be competent in to be able to pass the practical assessment. Not all people learn at the same pace therefore it is important to be considerate of other students aboard the vessel.

  • You will be given opportunity to practice each task, and the instructor will advise whether they think you are at a competency level to attempt the formal practical assessment. This will be an honest opinion from the instructor, but it is your decision. During the assessment it will be up to you to complete the tasks without any assistance or help from any person aboard the vessel.
  • For students who have never driven a boat before, multiple training sessions may be needed, depending on the student’s aptitude.
  • Our upfront fee includes practical training on the water, with between 45-60 minutes maximum training per person (group session of 3-4 people) for the various tasks you will be assessed on, giving you the opportunity to learn as you watch other people as well as practice yourself. The maximum training time may vary in some centres due to operating conditions.
  • When you can do each of these tasks without any assistance or guidance by the instructor, you will be ready to attempt the assessment.

You may not be competent in driving the boat / PWC in just one day Additional practical on water training session(s) may be required if you are unsuccessful in performing the required tasks for assessment.

Additional practical training which includes the instructor and vessel will attract an additional fee.

Discuss scheduling for this with your instructor.

STEP 3:  THE PRACTICAL ASSESSMENT

The BoatSafe licensing system requires the instructor to formally assess each student’s competence on a prescribed list of tasks.

You will need to pass a formal practical assessment without assistance or guidance from the instructor or another person on the training vessel..

  • Only ONEattempt at each practical task is allowed per day under assessment conditions. So if you run over a float during the man overboard task or do not follow the regulations etc., then just like a car licence test you can’t be passed that day.

If you are unsuccessful in the practical assessment, you can pay for further training session(s), giving you the time to practice the required tasks again until you are ready for the next attempt of the Practical Assessment (a fee is charged for each additional assessment). 

 

STEP 4:  THE ISSUE OF YOUR LICENCE/S

When you have successfully completed the theory and practical assessments, we will provide the statement of competency (which is not your licence) and Licence application form to take into Qld Transport to obtain your licence. The statement of competency is valid for 6 months and must be presented in person during this time, otherwise reassessment is required.

Boating Hints and Tips

Bungs in boats

Carry a spare bung for your boat on board. They are not expensive but can save you considerable anguish on certain occasions.

Boat fuel

Do not use aged fuel mixtures in you boat fuel tank. This often leads to motor start problems. Ensure your fuel is of the highest quality and free of water contamination. Use doubtful fuel in your lawn mower.

Boat battery

Do not let your boat start battery “die of old age “ in your boat. Replace it prior to letting you down. (perhaps every 24 months).

Motor repairs & service

Ensure your motor receives regular service and maintenance by persons with appropriate skills and knowledge.

Communications

Please ensure you have some form of communication in the event of trouble. A mobile phone is better than no radio at all. Let the Coast Guard or VMR know you plans.

Safety equipment

Check you have all the required safety equipment for the area you are boating in. (smooth, partially smooth, or open waters). An easy reference can be found in the Recreational Boating & Fishing book published by Maritime Safety Queensland.

Drink driving

Remember the drink driving rules on the water (currently 2012 under the 0.05 limit). Water Police conduct checks on a regular basis. You can lose your car and boat licence. Check current laws!

Overloading of boat

Don’t overload you boat. Use the max. capacity labels as a guide. These labels are required to be fitted to you boat. Obtain these labels and the appropriate booklet from the Queensland Transport Customer Service outlets.

Life jackets (pfd’s)

Remember to have the required life jackets on board—life jackets save lives—if you don’t believe this, perhaps you may be better off not boating!

Sea sickness

There are many methods and cures claimed for sea sickness. Some work, some don’t. The only sure way to prevent this is to sit under a tree.
