RYA Personal Watercraft Proficiency (PWC)

They are fast and exciting, but need to be handled with care that is why we have the RYA PWC Personal Watercraft Proficiency JetSki / Waverunner Course certificate. You may know these machines as Jet Skis. They can be single-seater machines or can take two or three people

Whether you just want to have a go on holiday or buy your own machine, our Personal Watercraft course will teach you how to get the best from it. Our course is designed for first time and experienced riders alike.

Increasingly our certificate is required for launching in UK harbours, but is also needed if you want to use your PW abroad.
