Trevor Foster, the principal of the school, describes below the courses
available and provides some background information about the school.
We are part of Middlesbrough Education and
Leisure Services Department and a unique facility offering educational subjects
in an exciting and stimulating way. We provide RYA Powerboat courses to Schools,
Youth Groups, Commercial and Industrial Organisations as well as Individuals.
Courses are run ‘on demand’ and we have a variety of craft from 3 to 5.5
meters with engines upto 85hp which guarantee an exciting drive. All our courses
are run under the supervision of a RYA Powerboat Trainer and are based at
Middlesbrough on the tidal river Tees.
The Tees is one of Europe’s busiest ports with shipping of up to 150,000
tonnes regularly coming in and out, so safety and awareness of other water users
are an important consideration. However we are not restricted in the speed at
which we operate our RIB’s so that ‘adrenaline rush’ is guaranteed.

| History |
| This site was
founded back in 1999 as a resource for powerboaters interested
in furthering their boat handling skills via training or simply
reading about how to handle their craft better. Since its
inception it remains the only site dedicated to powerboat
training and is ranked No1 for Powerboat Training by search
engines such as Google, Yahoo and Altavista. The site has been
reviewed by a variety of magazines and websites and its content
is regularly used by other more mainstream sites. |
