Plymouth Powerboat School are an RYA power boat training centre dedicated to providing the highest possible standards of training, safety and equipment all at competitive prices. We train 7 days a week, 52 weeks a year from QAB Marina, Plymouth.
Our teaching boats include 3 x 7m RIBs (all under 1 year old) each fitted with either a single 225hp or twin 90hp four stroke engines. These provide an excellent combination of comfort, safety and speed. Our boats are fitted with all the latest electronics including a colour GPS / chart plotter, echo sounder and DSC VHF Radio together with a comprehensive set of safety equipment. We also specialise in providing own boat tuition.
Before, during and after your course our professional, experienced, friendly instructors are always on hand to answer any questions you might have. Being a dedicated power boat training sea school gives us the edge over the various sailing schools in the area which only offer powerboating as a sideline. We operate a maximum ratio of 3 students per instructor on all practical courses (1:1 tuition also available) and 6 students per instructor on all shorebased courses. This enables us to offer the personal touch that other centres are unable to.
Plymouth Sound is the ideal location for powerboat training with a unique combination of safe sheltered areas for novices and challenging rough water for advanced courses. We are easily reached from across Devon, Cornwall, Somerset, Dorset and the rest of the South West.
