Hey!!! Just wanted to say how amazing today was. It was a pleasure to learn new stuff from you and to not feel like a dick when asking a question. Your lessons were very informative and I feel very confident to be able to take out my boat tomorrow. You did not belittle me as a woman ( surprisingly it does happen a lot these days ). Thank you so much. Will def recommend you to other people.

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

Hi Wayne,
Just a quick note to thank you very much for Saturday, I know everybody in our group, thoroughly enjoyed it and glad they all passed. We were all pretty nervous as none of us had done tests for many years.

From initial conversation to booking to information sent dealing with Wayne has been a pleasure. The actual day of theory and practical with 7 of us in attendance from ages 14 to 47 was professional, informative, fun, relatable and clear. Wayne uses both visual and written methods and completes the day with a positive, calm approach and great of humour. The Sea Soaring II (yep Wayne we remembered the name of the boat 
) was beautifully maintained. Thank u Wayne for a gr8 day – absolutely recommend you anywhere anytime
See u on the water!

Hello Wayne
Thank you for a wonderful day. The kids and I loved the day. Great thing to do together and your instruction made it not daunting at all. Really appreciate the skipper’s ticket experience you offer.
Kind Regards,

Hi Wayne, just wanted to commend you on delivering an excellent course for us today. You are obviously a wealth of knowledge in this area. You have a unique way of getting the message across. Well done. It was nice meeting you and your wife this morning. I would not hesitate in recommending you to people. PS I enjoy listening to you on the radio some mornings. Thanks again.

Wayne is amazing! Having very little baiting experience I was worried about going but his easy going nature made class and passing a breeze. Very informative and teaches you all the little things that will help with safe boating.
Thanks mate! 10/10 from me…

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,

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.

I really enjoyed your class – it was well run and I learnt a few extra things to keep my crew on their toes.
See you in Gracetown or back up here.
Cheers,
