Essex Powerboat & Jet Ski School

I completed the Powerboat Level 2 course with Pete and Ian and had a great experience. They are both professional and knowledgeable but also have the ability to make learning interesting. The course has a mixture of classroom learning (on Pete's cruiser) and practical learning in the RIB. Ian is great at explaining how to manoeuvre the RIB and his calm and patient personality allows you to build confidence and experience without judgement. My favourite part of the course was the "man overboar...

Both the wife and I recently completed the Power Boat Level 2 course with Pete & Ian, who pitched the course at a level that engaged novices and those with some experience whilst covering all the detail necessary to satisfy the course requirements.

I just completed the Powerboat Level 2 course with Pete and Ian. The course was great and they are brilliant at explaining everything and having patience when I didn’t know what I was doing.

Fantastic course! Did Powerboat Level 2 and thoroughly enjoyed!!! Pete and team really put a lot into the course and I have come away having learnt so much more than I was expecting! Feel so much more confident on the water and knowledgeable about everything that is needed to be competent. All my questions were answered and Pete gave us all the time needed for whatever we needed. Highly recommend and will be booking here for any future courses.

Highly recommend Pete and his team for PWC AND Rib Training. We have had two of our newest staff of complete their RYA PWC course and RYA Level 2. When we completed Sea Trials from winter maintenance and internal training, the training received from Essex Powerboat School was obvious in the skills the team demonstrated. We look forward to advancing our staffs training with Essex Powerboat School.
