Recreational Skippers Ticket!!!


I did it!
Last Sunday, a few mates and I did our RST and passed!
We took 3 hours of tuition (dry) then an hour's exam before we headed to the Swan in the examiner's boat (a bit like the white one with the canopy below) where we had to conduct safety briefings, logon to sea rescue, leaving jetty, man over board, emergency stop, approach jetty and tie off, use markers and leads to navigate and finally log off sea rescue. All in a day's work, which results in me now being able to hire (or buy!) a boat that's over 6hp or 4.5KW in power, so I'll be taking you all water skiing when you come to see us!
Cheers!

  2. Well done on getting your skippers ticket mate. With all the boats around it must feel just like Brixham (Not)!

  4. Where did you get your skippers ticket. I did mine through Perth Boat School and they were awesome. www.perthboatschool.com.au

    There is a website that compares all the skippers tickets too. www.skippersticket.com.au
