Course Overview

The RYA Powerboat Level 2 Course

 

During your 2 days on a Powerboat level 2 course we try and maximise your time out on the water. You will learn and practice a range of skills including berthing the boat in a variety of ways, picking up a mooring buoy, man overboard, handling the boat at faster speeds, as well as learning some basic navigation techniques.

 

Our base in the centre of Poole Harbour is a great location for this course as it has plenty of natural training aids including a wide range of buoyage, different size channels, array of other water traffic and various different Marinas to practice berthing. Poole Bay which is just a short transit through the harbour gives us plenty of space to practice some faster boat handling in a nice open area.

Duration: 2 days (09.15 – 17.00)

Minimum age: 12 (12 – 17 must be accompanied by an adult also participating on course)

Previous experience: None

​​

Location : Based in Port of Poole Marina, in the heart of Poole Harbour, we can boast one of the best Powerboat training locations on the South coast of the UK. Onsite facilities include our Training Room, parking and changing facilities with showers.

 

Poole Harbour and the surrounding coastline provide the ideal training area with sheltered waters for initial learning, an array of buoyage and sandy beaches to practice anchoring and make for an all round great day out on the water.
