1) BOAT LICENCE

2) BOAT DRIVING LICENCE PRACTICAL LOGBOOK

Practical boating experience can be gained by completing the boat driving licence practical logbook. When first applying for a general boat driving licence, applicants must carry out in the company of an experienced skipper, a minimum of three trips in a powered vessel (excluding PWC) operating under power.

An experienced skipper is a person who holds a valid NSW general boat driving licence which has been valid for at least three years or holds a certificate of competency in force under the National System for Domestic Commercial Vessels regulated by the Australian Maritime Safety Authority. Licence holders under 18 years of age are not considered experienced skippers for this purpose.

The vessel used to carry out practical experience must carry the prescribed safety equipment and be fitted with appropriate lights if undertaking night time navigation.

Details of each trip must be recorded in the practical logbook and be verified by the experienced skipper. The applicant and the experienced skipper must also confirm that all elements relating to practical experience competencies as listed in the logbook have been covered by initialling each element across the three trips.

If you have difficulties in finding an experienced skipper Maritime Training School can help you complete your practical in 1 easy trip with no log book requirement. The session takes approximately 20 mins at Mosman 3rd Sea Scout hall at an agreed day and time.
