The Boat School
The Boat School is a training centre recognised by the Royal Yachting Association to conduct Powerboat courses at levels 1 & 2 as well as marine radio (SRC) and other shorebased courses.
We are also recognised by the Spanish Directorate-General for Merchant Shipping (Dirección General de la Marina Mercante), the Autonomous Community of the Region of Murcia and the Generalitat Valenciana to conduct sail training, powerboat courses and VHF marine radio courses.
The Boat School is the only maritime training centre on the Costa Blanca with recognition to conduct training under the Spanish recreational boating scheme and to run internationally recognised powerboat courses under the auspices of the RYA.
Vessels
All our vessels are sports boats ideally suited to boating in the Mediterranean. We constantly update our fleet of training vessels and we use the same fleet for both training and powerboat rentals. This means that you can do a training course with us and rent a powerboat the very next day.
All or boats are commercially coded for training and meet the stringent equipment requirements you’d expect of an RYA Recognised Training Centre.
