PBI, APBI PWC Instr + Safety training needed

I would like to become a RYA powerboat instructor for our Dutch Sailing School. Since I have to fly to the UK it would be great if someone is offering a PBI with a Safety training just before or after and the PWC one day instructor endorsement in april or may.

Residential would be perfect.

(Have PB Advanced, 5 years experience with RIB's and PWC's, all paperwork)

All advice is welcome! (I have checked the RYA website for the usual suspects)

Hi,

Your best bet for all that training on here is to speak to Doug Innes at Stormforce coaching on 02380 231 122, as he is one of the few centres with all the kit required for safety boating etc - his safety boat course includes use of Kayaks, Single Handed Dinghies, Double Handed Dinghies, and Windsurfers, as practical rather than shorebased sessions.

He also runs PBI and PWC Instructor training in house.

Hope that helps,

Jimbo

Thanks for the reference

Gert

Ive got a RYA powerboat Instructor Course running on 24/25/26 May with the one day PWC Instructor Endorsement back to back on the 28th. We can also run the safetyboat back to back with the above immediatly before or after the others. Effecivly you could do the full 6 days all back to back, if these dont suit we have plenty others.

Thanks for all the replies and calls!

Early May I will do PBI and Safety Boat.

Advanced and PWC will follow quickly, I hope.
