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.

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,

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.

Thanks Wayne,

Tariq ( my son ) had a great day, can’t wipe the smile from his face, he’s pretty proud of himself. We both really enjoyed the day out.

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!

One of the best training I have had. Goes that extra step to help you pass. More than just a skippers ticket

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.

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!
