The Powerboat Instructor is a competent, experienced power boater who has been trained to teach power boating up to Level 2 under the supervision of the Principal or Chief Instructor of a recognised centre.
The Powerboat Instructor Course provides the competent and experienced powerboat handler with the training to teach power boating up to the required standard. You learn how to organise boats and teach on the water, to make a presentation in the classroom, the importance of understanding your student, how to communicate, briefing and de-briefing.
