Our Powerboat Training Courses:
We are an RYA recognised Practical and Theory Sea School based at Ramsgate in Kent - 14 miles North of Dover on the Southern tip of the Thames Estuary in the South East of the United Kingdom. We have been teaching for over 30 years now and an RYA recognised sea school since 1987.
The powerboat courses use:
- "Deep Six Too" our Ocean 6.5 metre Rib with a 200HP Mercury &
- "Osprey" our 5 metre Osprey RIB with a 70hp outboard
Our RYA Theory school and office is in a large 18th century thatched cottage in the middle of Ramsgate and 800 metres from its Royal Harbour and modern marina.
Our aim is to teach you to be safe and confident. With this in mind you are encouraged to learn at your own pace, it's your ability that counts - as well as the qualifications.
We also offer motor boat training courses in Kent too.

Location / How to Find us:
- From Ramsgate station it is a short taxi ride to the theory school and office at 12 Vale Square.
- By Road the main routes are the M2 or the M20. When on the M20 look for the A249 turning on the Maidstone bypass section. (sign posted to Sheerness and Ramsgate). The A249 takes you to the M2 and then to Ramsgate. On the outskirts of Ramsgate follow the road to the town centre. Vale Square is the turning on the left just before the TOTAL petrol site (on the zebra crossing). We are the thatched cottage on the right hand side about 200 mtrs into the square.
