Course Requirements
Minimum age of participants is 12 years
Our powerboat courses take place from both WFYC and Titchmarsh marina. We will be in touch nearer your course with the exact plans. Often the course requires transport between WFYC and the marina, weather and tide dependent. Our course instructors may be able to help with this but unfortunately they cannot be responsible for the transport of under 18s. Please ensure parents and guardians of under 18s liaise with the instructor at the start of the course in regards to what transport is required.
We are lucky enough at WFYC to be able to instruct in both wheel and tiller driven powerboats. So you can have the opportunity to experience both.
