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.

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.

Hi Wayne
Just wanted to say a big thank you for the great experience yesterday. I have to say I learnt so much more about boating and the ocean than I had imagined. Needless to say I will be recommending your services to friends. Hope to see on the water (in a non emergency way!)
Kind regards,

Dear Wayne,
Paul enjoyed the course immensely. He said you were a great teacher and it takes quite a lot to impress Paulley! He loved it so much, he was at the boat ramp when I left this afternoon watching the boats come in! Thank you very much and yes our stay and the weather was fantastic- whatever the season we enjoyed it so much.
Thanks again,

My husband and I went through Sea Soaring to get our skippers, could not recommend Wayne highly enough! Such an informative, knowledgeable, reassuring and patient instructor who clearly knows his stuff.

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!

Wayne was a great trainer, just recently got my skippers ticket in Karratha, wasnt just a tick and flick course. Good course content and very engaging and knowledgeable. Thanks again.

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.
