This course is perfect for beginners looking to gain the skills and qualifications needed to safely operate personal watercraft (PWC) or jet skis. Designed for leisure users and professionals alike, the course covers essential techniques, safety protocols, and navigation skills. Whether you're preparing for a role as superyacht crew or simply want a licence for your own jet ski in Spain, this is an enjoyable and informative day on the water.
Your day will start with a comprehensive briefing covering safety equipment, departure checks, and the basic care of your personal watercraft. You’ll then move into understanding weather, tides, and navigation techniques specific to your local area. Practical sessions will involve hands-on training in high-speed handling, person-overboard recovery, and capsize recovery. You’ll also practise marina berthing, buoy mooring, and close-quarter handling for real-world skills.
Later, you'll learn trip planning and how to use electronic navigation systems effectively. The day wraps up with a focus on collision regulations, towing, and any final questions. By the end of the course, you'll have developed confidence and competence in managing a jet ski safely and efficiently.
