 Happy Clients

Without a doubt the finest one-day educational experience of my life.

My instructor was bloody awesome.

Professional, personable and highly qualified with many years working in Search and Rescue in the unforgiving environment of the Atlantic and North Sea oil industry.

I was an absolute novice in boating however when this tuition was over; I had gained significant confidence and practical experience in basic power boat handling which will serve me and my family well.

Thank you, thank you.
