We are not going to let you operate any boat without some theoretical knowledge. So you must complete the Essential Navigation and Seamanship online course first. Once you've done that, the Practical Open Boat Handling course is your opportunity to practice the boat handling theory from ENS with our experienced instructors.
SSNT's Practical Open Boat Handling course teaches how to handle an open boat (pirogue) about 25 feet long and fitted with an outboard engine and a steering console.
In the POBH course, you will practice how to steer a boat using landmarks and using a compass. You will learn how to manoeuvre a boat for a crew member to recover a floating object from the water. You will learn how to manoeuvre a boat to leave a dock and you will learn how to manoeuvre a boat onto a dock.
In this course you are guaranteed four, 60 minute, one-on-one sessions with your instructor. You will need practice the exercises in different conditions and areas. Call or message to find out more.
