Whether you’re new to boating or an experienced water-lover, all students can jet out on the water by joining one of our 2-day, RYA powerboat courses.
With unrivalled student discounts, if you’re looking to try something new and exciting in Southampton while gaining unique skills and a qualification recognised around the world – the courses could be for you.
From exploring the coastline to providing safety cover on a race-course – there’s plenty of powerboating possibilities once qualified.
Talking about the courses, UoS student and Powerboat Level 2 Instructor Sam Richardson, said:
“Doing a Powerboat Level 2 course with the University is a fantastically fun way to spend two days out on the water in Southampton. Whether you’re brand new to boating or have some prior experience, the course caters for everyone – starting with basic boat handling, progressing on to high-speed manoeuvres and culminating in a passage on the second day.
“Even better, doing the course with the University costs about half what it would cost with a normal company – so you can save money by taking advantage of this opportunity!
“With this qualification, you can apply for an International Certificate of Competence which enables you to you hire a boat up to 10m long anywhere in the world – imagine how jealous your friends or family would be if you were to rent a boat on holiday and drive them around with your new qualification!
“I’d definitely urge anyone interested to capitalise on this amazing course offered by the Watersports Centre.”
