Each Successful Participant Receives a FREE DVD
Safer Recreational Boating (DVD)
produced by the National Maritime Safety Authority
Duration: 90 minutes
The National Maritime Safety Authority has produced a very useful DVD for people new to boating, particularly when a person will be sitting for their boat operating licence.
The DVD offers advice and instruction in several interactive chapters.
On selecting any chapter, the DVD demonstrates elements of boat handling and seamanship and takes viewers through Trip Preparation and Planning, Rules and Regulations, Safe Operation and Seamanship and Boating Emergencies and Incidents.
Each chapter has a Quiz at the end to test how well the information has been understood. This is an ideal supplementary aid to someone about to take, or just completed, their Recreational Skippers Ticket assessment.
