Validity of Certification
Whilst the RYA Powerboat Level 2 certificate does not have an official expiry date, it is essential to keep in mind that boating regulations and best practices can evolve over time. New safety guidelines, navigation rules and equipment standards may be introduced, therefore, it is crucial for boaters to stay updated on these changes to ensure safe boat practices. Regular training is advised especially if it has been some time since being on a boat / completed the training. Please note that there is a 5-year expiry if you have chosen to Commercially Endorse this qualification.
We offer a package rate of £999 for the 5 day Basic Safety Training course and Powerboat Level 2 course if booked for the same week to run consecutively over 7 days.
