Getting Your Licence

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!
