Nick and the team at Boatability are simply the best. We decided to have all four of us (55 yr old male, similar aged female and two daughters 16 and 17) take the Powerboat level 2 course. Our instructors were patient, calm and explained everything clearly. We all had a fantastic 2 days and learnt a lot, although it didn’t feel like it at the time. Would highly recommend these guys and will be going back for further training to enhance our knowledge and open up a wider world of boating. Thank you Nick and the team.

Hi Nick & Mark, I just wanted to say thank you for everything last weekend, I thoroughly enjoyed the course which made me aware of how rusty and out of date I am with many things. You have obviously put a lot of time and thought into creating the course and how you present it, and the result is excellent. I couldn't have been in the company of a nicer couple of chaps 😉.

Did our level 2 Boatability there, Nick Lucas Harley and the whole team were really great, course was very well delivered with good mix of practice and theory. Very worth doing the trip down from London especially as Portsmouth is a real good place to learn as it can be quite a tricky area to navigate. Would highly recommend!
