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.

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…

Wayne is an exceptional educator, and conducts a fantastic training course to achieve the Skippers ticket. Highly recommend if you are starting out with no experience. Thanks Wayne

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.

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!

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

Today I had the pleasure of doing my Skippers Ticket with Wayne from Sea Soaring Marine. Not only does this bloke know his stuff, he individually tailors his approach so that not a single person is left behind not matter their experience level.
Absolutely first rate from the moment you enter Wayne’s classroom to the moment you step off his boat. Thanks Wayne, I cannot recommend you and your service highly enough. Not just an informative and educational day, but bloody fun as well. Cheers mate.

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!

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.

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,

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.
