A fun, interactive evening covering fundamental topics to help boost confidence and make your time afloat more enjoyable and a little safer.

Enrol Today >

is run by female tutors who will demonstrate what you should do if you are # put in # of a boat. The session will cover the basics of staying safe while out on the water and how to get help if required. The evening is fun, practical and our tutors will keep you engaged the whole way through. This programme has been designed as a taster and is an excellent introduction before moving onto our Day Skipper or Maritime VHF Operators courses.

These seminars are not being run at present but we do encourage you to look into our Day Skipper Course which is an introductory course for all members of the family or crew, including those new to boating. Please contact us at bookings@boatingeducation.org.nz if you would like us to quote you for a private Day Skipper course.

Online Study

Online and Home study boating courses offer many benefits for those seeking boating education. Firstly, these courses are designed to be studied either online or with a home study booklet so they have great content and illustrations, are interactive and are easy to navigate. You can also study at your own pace giving the flexibility to schedule learning around busy lifestyles and commitments. You can also complete the course in blocks and can come back to it on a weekly basis until it is completed.

Classroom Study

Classroom courses offer the student the ability to study intensely over a finite period of time (usually a weekend) to complete a boating course. It is a chance to meet up with other like-minded boaties and learn from their experiences. Having an educated teacher with years of boating knowledge enables the student to be taught face-to-face and ask any questions that may come up.
