Course structure:
This RYA Level 2 Powerboat Handling course provides the skills and background knowledge needed by the competent powerboat driver. It teaches boat handling and seamanship in powerboats and focuses on low-speed close quarters handling, man overboard recovery, an introduction to driving at planing speed and collision regulations.
While not an obligatory requirement, it has now become industry standard for yacht crew to obtain the powerboat Level 2.
The RYA Powerboat Level 2 Course is a two-day entry level course, recognised by the UK MCA as a certificate of competency for the operation of small powerboats and it is recognised by most European administrations for the operation of small craft under 10m.
The certificate issued will be endorsed to show the type of boat in which the training took place.
This qualification also allows successful candidates to apply for the International Certificate of Competence (ICC).
Please note that English licenses are no longer recognized under the Monaco flag, if you would like to register your boat under the Monaco flag, please check out our coastal license.
