The programs delivered are designed to develop the skills and experience essential for the safe operation of pleasure craft and workboats at sea.
Whether your aim is to skipper a Diving R.I.B. or Hardboat, or perhaps engage in coastal trips around the coastline of Britain our programs are designed to fulfil your needs.
Anyone who wishes to enjoy the marine environment and accesses the sea by boat needs to have the ability to sympathetically helm a vessel with regard to wind, tide, speed and loading and be competent in identifying the potential hazards and risks associated with being at sea.
Necessarily the qualifications available form a vital skills base for the aspiring mariner and for individuals looking to enhance their opportunities for employment in the marine sector.
