Not sure how far you are willing to travel- Is Southampton any good?

We run all of the courses you require regularly.

MCA Advanced Cert of Competence
RYA/MCA First Aid
RYA Sea Survival
RYA Short Range Certificate

Best Regards

PBA or RYA

I note you say PBA courses, I drive boats for a living and I haven't heard of PBA run Courses and I believe the MCA's mandate for providing small boat training and certification lies with the RYA.

This place is close to you but I can't attest to their quality

Perhaps he means it as a short version of PowerBoatAdvanced course! Well that's how I read it anyway!

Good point, I was thinking of the Professional Boatmans Asociation but I suspect your right.
