QLD BOAT LICENCE COURSE PROCESS
The course is usually run in one day. At its completion, participants receive a completion certificate which you can present to Queensland Transport, whereupon a licence will be issued.
Our instructors are commercial mariners, who also hold national training qualifications. More importantly, boating is in their blood, and most of them go boating on their days off!
During the course you’ll practice a whole range of tasks while driving our vessel, and become familiar with docking, mooring, and low and high speed maneuvering. You’ll also do practical exercises such as chart work and trip planning, and gain the required knowledge of Queensland’s marine regulations to be a competent skipper.
