WHAT OUR STUDENTS SAY

Amazing experience with both the STCW and GUEST interior training. The biggest plus with Seascope compared to other maritime schools is the amount of hands on training. The instructors want for you to thoroughly understand and master the course objectives and truly want the best for you. Erin Hill

A thoroughly professional and enjoyable experience doing my STCW refresher course with Seascope last week, with enthusiastic and diligent instructors, hence it was mine and the entire crews second time doing our refresher courses with them. William Broderick

I can not recommend Sophie and the team at Seascope highly enough. They went out of their way to accommodate myself last minute and the course was of the highest standard. I will definitely return! Alan Vermeulen

Went to SEASCOPE Antibes for the STCW. It was an amazing week, Ged and Paul were really kind and helpful. I 100% recommend doing a training with them! Alicia Soreau

RYA Level 2 Powerboat Handling

RYA powerboat courses are primarily for those using small powered craft such as RIBs, dories and sportsboats that don't generally undertake long or offshore passages.

The types of commercial craft requiring this level certification are typically: charter fishing boats, small passenger launches, thrill ride operators, harbour patrol launches, construction site safety boats etc.

If you will be using larger boats with accommodation and the capacity to cruise or work further offshore you are likely to need a certificate within the motor cruising programme such as Day Skipper, Coastal Skipper or Yachtmaster Offshore.

If you need a Level 2 Powerboat Handling certificate in order to work on a commercial craft subject to the MCA's codes of practice, you will need to get it commercially endorsed . You can then work on commercial vessels up to 24m in length, operating in category 6 waters - that is up to 3 miles from a nominated departure point in fine weather and daylight hours.
