Issue date
The very popular Coastguard Boating Education course “Day Skipper” is again being offered at Wellington Ocean Sports.
Day Skipper is a 15 hour theory only course that is applicable to all water users. No experience is necessary to attend the course, but it is also ideal for those with boating experience who have never undertaken formal boating education.
Day Skipper leads on to New Zealand’s most widely recognised boating qualification “Boatmaster” and then to the prestigious “Coastal Skipper” qualification. Day Skipper covers the following topics – boats and equipment, navigation, rules and regulations, emergencies and basic knots.
Wellington Ocean Sports’ next Day Skipper course is commencing on Monday 5 May and runs on Monday and Wednesday evening from 5.30 to 8.30pm.
Whatever form of ocean sports you are involved in education is the key to safe boating. Further details and booking are available on our website.
