I Did It!

Power Boating Level 2-Day 4

*Spoiler Alert- I DID IT !!!

Just like the last three sessions this one began with putting together a safety kit and setting the boat up so we were ready to go. And just like the last session the morning was to be an idpendent study session, where the instructors would stand on the pontoon  watching.

Again we started by practicing driving figure of eights around two buoys then attempting to reverse a figure of eight, also around two buoys. Practice mooring to a buoy, holding off and coming alongside.

After lunch we practiced towing both alongside and behind while driving in a figure of eight. Lastly but certainly not least we practiced some real life man overboard drills before recapping the course in the local Pub!

Despite challenges along the way I did walk away having gained my Level 2 Powerboat Qualification and couldn’t be more proud of myself.
