Hi Wayne,

Thanks again for the great learning experience yesterday. You truly are a very passionate and knowledgeable bloke and I’m so glad that I completed my RST with Sea Soaring Marine. Myself, Aimee, Mike, and Big Al all agreed that the experience was priceless and certainly “more than just a skipper’s ticket” as you so rightfully said.

My confidence in skippering a vessel has increased and I can’t wait to get out on the water with my family to enjoy the Blackwood river and Geographe bay in particular.

All the best for your time up north and good luck with your future endeavours. Say hello to Wilson for me and thanks once again for your tuition and good times yesterday.

Cheers,

Good evening Wayne

Firstly, thank you for your time and patience in delivering the assessment information for my RST. I actually learnt a great deal and gained confidence. I’m glad I chose your delivery method with the extra information that will help with ramp etiquette, maintenance, safety methods and procedures and general common sense. You succeeded in teaching me that boating really does require a specific and focused mindset.

Thanks again,

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,

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!

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.

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!

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,
