RYA Powerboat Courses

Jumbles runs RYA Powerboat Level 1, Level 2 and RYA Safety Boat based on member's demand throughout the year. These courses have a range of age requirements, read below to find out more.

We run our courses for the benefit of our members rather than to make profit. However, we still welcome a small contribution of £50 towards the running of the courses from our members. This helps to cover the cost of logbooks, RYA Certificates, Fuel for safety boats used doing the course and maintenance/insurance of the club boats used during the course.


Please note: as we are not a commercial training centre you are required to be a member of the club in order to attend these courses (for more information on becoming a member please click here).
