Join us locally in Newcastle to get your NSW boat and PWC licence and join the fun!
Location: Central Leagues Club, Charlestown
The licence exam is conducted upon completion of the course tuition.
We advise allowing roughly 4 to 5 hours for everything.
Students must be at least 12 years old to attend this course and obtain a licence.
Kids (<16) will also need mum or dad to sign them in.
For adults (16+), a NSW drivers licence. For kids (<16), a birth certificate.
For a list of acceptable ID, please see the POI brochure.
Food and non-alcoholic drinks are allowed throughout the course.
There is a break roughly midway through the course.
You’ll start with a fun session led by our accredited trainers, who’ll guide you through all the key boating safety points for both boat and jetski licences. We’ll pause for a short break midway so you can stretch your legs and grab a drink.
Once you’ve passed the exam, you’ll receive a signed and stamped qualification from your trainer. Simply take this to Service NSW once you’ve completed your logbook and they’ll issue your licence on the spot.
Congratulations, you’re competent, confident and ready to hit the water straight away!
Training is delivered by Boating Licence Course’s own qualified, experienced and vetted training team.Â
