Just did a refresher course with Wayne and really had a great time. He brought back so many things I had forgotten and taught me a lot of new boating skills. This guy really knows his stuff, so is you haven’t got a skippers ticket or need to know about boats, contact him, you’ll be glad you did.

Today I had the pleasure of doing my Skippers Ticket with Wayne from Sea Soaring Marine. Not only does this bloke know his stuff, he individually tailors his approach so that not a single person is left behind not matter their experience level.
Absolutely first rate from the moment you enter Wayne’s classroom to the moment you step off his boat. Thanks Wayne, I cannot recommend you and your service highly enough. Not just an informative and educational day, but bloody fun as well. Cheers mate.

Have just completed my Recreational Skippers Ticket with Wayne. (30th December 2019).
Highly recommend Wayne and Sea Soaring Marine to anybody wishing to obtain this qualification.
Exceptionally professional, theory section of course delivered in an easy to understand format and the practical completed in a very well equipped and new boat that enhanced the experience.
Wayne expected high standards of group prior to passing which added to experience.
Wayne’s knowledge and previous experience in the field also ensured class time was enjoyable and I learnt a lot during the day.
Thanks Wayne for a fantastic day.

Wayne recently put 4, 14 year old boys through this course and he was brilliant. They all successfully passed and thoroughly enjoyed their day

Getting a skippers ticket with Wayne is great value for money. Could not be a better experience. So much more than ticks in the box for a license.

I can launch and drive a boat yet learned so many new things. He generously shares his 30+ years experience with many best practices for boat ownership and maintenance as well as tips for getting the boat in and out of the water.

You won’t be disappointed!

I loved the way you got everyone involved and interacting.

Anyway – thanks again mate and well done!

Hi Wayne. I am still a buzz with the info session you rolled out to me today. I cannot believe I remembered so much and am thankful I booked my skippers ticket through your company. I would also like to thank you both for your hospitality today. I will be spreading the word as much as I can.
Kind Regards,

HI Wayne,

We would like to say thank you very much for yesterday. Both Junko and myself had a great day and think we are lucky to have done our Skippers Tickets with Sea Soaring Marine. I would highly recommend your business in the future.

I can’t recommend the Skippers Ticket Training course at Sea Soaring Marine highly enough. Wayne is an excellent instructor with a wealth of experience in sea rescue and recreational boating. I finished the course much more confident that I can keep my family safe on the water and plan appropriately. If you are thinking of getting your RST and want to be safe as well as legal, give Wayne a call.
