What should I bring with me when joining a practical motor cruising or powerboat training course ?

Do I need any specialised equipment?

No. All safety equipment and lifejackets can be found on board. Some people like to bring their own materials such as a PLB. Please feel free to bring any equipment that you prefer, but make sure that any safety materials are professionally serviced and in date.

Do I need to bring any food supplies?

No. Lunch and drinks are provided during your course.   If you have any special requests or dietary requirements, please let us know prior to the course.

Your course is non-residential which means that overnight accommodation, breakfast and dinner are not included. 

So what do I need to bring?

You will need to bring;

• Your personal RYA Syllabus/logbook (if you have one already; otherwise we will give you one)
• Pre-course knowledge quiz certificate 
• Downloaded and completed Health Declaration Form
• Water bottle
• Passport or ID card
• Sunscreen and sunglasses
• Any medication you are taking for the duration of the course
• And a sense of humour 😉

Make sure to properly protect your electronics (phone, tablet, camera etc), and please use soft bags to pack your personal gear.

Don't hesitate to contact us if you need some advice.

We will do our best to help you.
