Advice needed on getting commercial work

Have been working for a couple of years part time doing safety boat work and as a RYA powerboat instructor both in the Solent and on lakes in the midlands. I have been averaging around 15 to 20 hours per month paid year round.

I have just passed my adv. powerboat cert. of competence commercially endorsed. What is the best way to increase the amount of work I am doing in ribs or small powered craft. I'm thinking of teaching pb2 and rib charter skipper work as the main activities unless anyone has any better ideas. Who in the Solent area or midlands is best to approach regarding paid work for next season?

Chris
