RYA Powerboat Level 2 ICC Course Coastal Course

Our PB2 courses run on full sea going boats that includes actually taking you to sea. We cover marina skills, close quarter handling and much more, then we go to sea and run real routes just like you will in real life. 

Also our low ration courses only have 3 students per course.

We feel that training on a boating lake is hardly preparation for going to sea
RYA Powerboat Level 2 Course, why choose Solent Boat Training? We have a fleet of Rib powerboats from our Southampton location.
 
If you dream about boating abroad then the level 2 course also allows you can apply for the RYA ICC  (International Certificate of Competence*) which is a legal requirement to helm a boat of up to 10m in length in many countries outside the UK. So it`s the perfect course for anyone new to power boating or wanting to improve with some professional tuition. We teach the course to anyone over 12 years of age but under 16`s must be accompanied by a parent or guardian attending the same course.
A free voucher to attend the one day RYA VHF Radio Course is included for all our students.
The course runs over 2 consecutive days, prices from £199 depending on the time of year.
Monday/Tuesday - Tuesday/Wednesday - Thursday/Friday - Saturday/Sunday

Your course book and certificate are included in the course fee. With a maximum of 3 students per course you will enjoy that personal touch from our RYA Instructor over the duration of the 2 days. If you are booking more than 1 place we will always try to put you all together on the same course, but this is not guaranteed.
We can run a course on nearly any date for bookings of 2 or more students if the open course dates below don`t suit.

We spend a large percentage of this powerboat course in the open waters of the Solent & Southampton Water. We actually run a passage from Shamrock Quay and down Southampton Water (weather dependent) to give you a real taste of powerboating. A choice of powerboats depending on experience with the choice of 10 high power ribs all run by our school we can match the perfect boat to our students.

I had a great weekend and picked up some new skills and tricks. The staff are very friendly and we couldn’t have picked a nicer instructor. The standard of kit and boat provided was top level. Would recommend this course for anyone wanting to brush up or learn from scratch.
