RYA Powerboat Level 2

The 2-day RYA Powerboat Level 2 course includes basic seamanship skills such as handling the boat safely under power in a variety of conditions and is a pre requisite for many of the RYA Instructor courses.

With RYA Powerboat Level 2 you can apply for your International Certificate of Competence (ICC) from the RYA which will enable you to use powerboats abroad.
