Highly recommend Boatwise! We had a wonderful day on the harbour learning about boating in a practical and fun way, and our instructor, Alan, was exceptional.
My partner and I had a fantastic experience on the boat course we completed with Boatwise. Tristan made the booking process straight forward and efficient. Following completion of the course Tristan has been supportive on the next steps and with offering guidance on our own boat. The course was completed on a beautiful RIB with Dave, an exceptionally knowledgeable sailor, who explained everything very well. We would highly recommend this course and cannot thank Tristan and Dave enough.
We've had some excellent individual and group lessons from Tristian and Dave over the last 3+ months. What started off as very hesitant and accident prone boating, has now become much more confident and with the entire family passed our boating license too. Couldn't have done it without you guys.
Not only a beautiful day out on the water, but incredibly information boat licence course with Alan. Thank you Alan for taking my family and I through all the safety and logistical requirements of the boat licence course. We had a lot of fun during the process and left feeling like we had picked up a lot of useful information in a way that was easy to understand and replicate. Looking forward to our private lessons with Tristan in the near future!
Tristian was great, he taught us so much in a span of less than 3 hours on our boat. He showed what was most important about boat safety and to manoeuvre our first large vessel. Highly recommend Tristian and Boat wise.
Had a great lesson with Tristian learning how to adapt to driving a dual engine boat. It was very helpful and I learned a lot. Tristian was calm and patient and he explained and demonstrated things well. Money well spent.
