Typically on completion you can expect cheaper insurance premiums and access to further training withing the RYA syllabus.
If you require a RYA PWC certificate we will be able to direct you to one of our RYA training partners.
However, If you intend using boats as well as PWC's then as an alternative to the PWC course some people like to take the 2 Day RYA Level 2 Powerboat course, which will allow you to use both a PWC and a powerboat up to 10mts in length on the International Certificate of Competence (ICC). Please note that if attending a Day Skipper/ICC over 10mts this course will not cover you for Personal Water Craft, not only jetskis!
