About Us

Boatability was started by a group of ex Special Forces personnel who have been highly trained by the Royal Navy in boat handling techniques. The methods used have now been professionally adapted to train the leisure boater to a level that will not only show them the fundamentals but provide the much needed confidence, especially when in close quarter situations.

RIB, Cruiser and Powerboat charters are available. Some boats are available for bareboat charter depending on qualifications and others are provided with skippers.

Boatability makes your powerboat training and powerboating even more enjoyable as it has been designed specifically to enable persons or groups of mixed abilities, both able bodied and those with restricted mobility the opportunity to enjoy the educational, therapeutic, team building benefits or just plain fun which a powerboat can offer! RYA Powerboat Training Advanced

RYA Powerboat training is conducted on a wide variety of boats including Dories, Ribs and large cruisers both single and twin engined. This will enable you to get familiar with and learn how to handle many different types of powerboats on your powerboat training course.

Boatability is well established and benefits from the abundance of powerboat training experience that our staff have. Safety is always a priority and all vessels are coded to the Maritime Coastguard Agencies exacting standards. This ensures maximum possible safety at all times, regardless of the activity.

With many powerboat training instructors and powerboat resources you will benefit from first class course resources. For example we have four in house powerboat training instructors qualified to teach up to the RYA Advanced powerboat training courses so you will always be well looked after by the very best powerboat trainers. Our extensively equipped Portsmouth office and Camber Dock classroom training locations are the envy of the industry. Fantastic locations, great facilities and more combined experience and ability than you can imagine. You will be well looked after with first class powerboat training on your course.

With a range of boats available for charter or hire, which can also be bareboat (i.e. on some powerboats on your own if appropriately qualified) or skippered; the choice is yours. The boats range from luxury cruisers, extremely fast ribs, yachts, through to specialist powerboats for those who require disabled easy access; This includes wheelchair users and for people with other kinds of disability.

If you have the urge to go out on to the water, but for whatever reason do not have access to a powerboat, appropriate powerboat training, or the appropriate facilities, Boatability's powerboat training courses hold the answers for you.

"You and your staff should be complemented for the skills and patience demonstrated during this course. I have no hesitation in recommending Boatability as an excellent training facility"

Ian - Own Boat Tuition

" I’ve just completed an excellent two day RYA Powerboat II course at Boatability’s Old Portsmouth location. I found Nick to be courteous, patient with questions and an excellent communicator who was able to provide me with real world examples and experiences to help me understand what I was doing. Most importantly the course was fun which made the learning enjoyable”
