overview
The National Water Sports Centre has a range of Internationally recognised RYA courses available on-site.
Using our world famous 2km Regatta Lake and range of powered craft we will teach you everything you need to know to competently drive a boat by yourself.
Powerboats are fast, fun and contrary to popular belief very easy to access. Whether your looking to cover safety at events, go traveling around the coastlines of Britain or just want to get involved in a new and exciting hobby, the National Water Sports Centre has the right course for you.
For those that don't necessarily want to go on a course the National Water Sports Centre also offers powerboat rides (by arrangement only), so you can come down as an individual or group and have a few fun hours on the water.
