It’s easy to focus on the exciting part of owning a boat but knowing how to handle it properly makes all the difference once you’re on the water.

The RYA Powerboat Level 2 course gives you a solid foundation before you commit, covering everything from close-quarters manoeuvring and docking to safety and decision-making in real conditions. It’s practical, hands-on training that helps you understand what owning and operating a boat actually involves.

It’s also widely recognised by insurers and charter companies, which can be useful if you’re hiring or planning trips abroad.

For many people, it’s the step that turns an idea into something they feel confident acting on.

Owning a boat is brilliant… until something goes wrong mid-trip.

Most issues are preventable with a simple routine 👇

Your basic boat maintenance checklist:
✔️ Engine checks before every trip
✔️ Battery condition & charge
✔️ Fuel system – no leaks, clean lines
✔️ Lines, fenders & safety gear condition
✔️ Regular wash downs (saltwater is relentless)

It’s not about being a mechanic – it’s about spotting problems early.

We cover the practical side of looking after your boat on our courses, so you’re not guessing when it matters.

There’s nothing quite like a proper day out on the water 🌊

But the difference between a “good” trip and a brilliant one? Planning.

Here’s how to get it right:
✔️ Check the weather and tides – the Solent can change quickly
✔️ Plan your route (and a backup plan)
✔️ Pack more food & water than you think you’ll need
✔️ Know your fuel range – don’t cut it fine
✔️ Brief everyone on board before you leave

A bit of preparation means less stress and more time enjoying the ride.

If you’re not 100% confident planning a boat trip yet, that’s exactly what we help with on our courses.

Thinking of hiring a boat on holiday? Here’s something most people don’t realise…

In many countries, you can’t rent a boat without proof of competence.

That’s where qualifications like RYA Powerboat Level 2 come in.
It’s widely recognised and often accepted by charter companies worldwide.

Even where it’s not required, it makes a huge difference to your confidence (and your enjoyment).

No one wants to spend their holiday second-guessing every decision on the water.

👉 If you’re planning a trip abroad, getting qualified beforehand is one of the smartest moves you can make.

We recently assisted a couple with some passages heading towards the west country in their Merry Fisher 1095.
We stopped at Portland, Dartmouth, Fowey, and finally Falmouth before some nasty easterly winds hit, while tied up safely in the marina. Really nice to hear that once the weather cleared, they made it back to the Solent under their own steam, making a final hop from Dartmouth to Yarmouth IOW. Even seeing a pod of dolphins 🐬 off Portland on the return journey 🛥🌊
