G’day Wayne. Just wanted to thank you for a great day yesterday. It was extremely informative and fun! We all had a ball. We look forward to seeing you on the water ( but hopefully you not rescuing us! ) ha ha
Kind regards

The VHF training I completed today with Wayne was very well delivered. His knowledge, experience and engaging teaching style made the day an enjoyable experience. Highly recommend any of the marine course’s Sea Soaring have to offer.

Thank you for being very patient with me. I really learnt a lot, surprised myself with the skills at gracetown and feel a lot more confident in practicing with our barcrusher!

Enjoy your trip. Kind regards,

Wayne, you were as good as your word and delivered a great programme on Saturday morning with considerable patience in the afternoon. Congratulations on your professionalism-you obviously care about safety on the water and are passionate about what you do in passing on your knowledge.

Thanks and all the best.

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!

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.

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 mate just some positive feedback from today’s course. It was awesome, even from someone who has been on boats before. I learnt some good information. Appreciate it, cheers

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.

Hi Wayne,

I am sorry I didn’t get back to the room to see you before you left.

I just wanted to thank you for the training – some of the most useful and enjoyable training I have ever done.

I loved the way you got everyone involved and interacting.

Anyway – thanks again mate and well done!
