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!

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.

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,

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.

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!

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.

Thanks you Wayne for your course last week. I started as someone who had never been on a boat before and left as someone who has the knowledge and skills to confidently drive a boat. Wayne is lovely, helpful, knowledgeable and extremely passionate about safe boating. I would recommend Wayne and Sea Soaring Marine without hesitation, you will not be disappointed. Thanks again Wayne!
