Based on the Menai Strait we offer a range of powerboat courses.  We are an accredited RYA Powerboat Training Centre and our powerboat instructors are highly experienced.  The boat is a Humber 6.0 metre RIB, fitted to RYA/MCA specifications.

Porth Daniel will train to the RYA (coastal) syllabus, but will also give specific attention to the local conditions of the Menai Strait.

 

Introduction to boating techniques for launching and recovering a boat from a road trailer, everyday boat handling and the use of safety equipment.

1 day course, £100 per person. Minimum 2 persons.

This two day course provides the skills and background knowledge needed to drive a powerboat and is the basis of the International Certificate of Competence. It includes close quarter handling, high speed manoeuvres, man overboard recovery and collision regulations.

2 day course, £215 per person. Minimum 2 persons.

This is a half day assessment for experienced and already competent powerboat users who wish to obtain the formal level 2 qualification.

SENT TO PORTH DANIEL MAY 08

Dear All
Just a quick note to say thank you to everybody involved in making the Powerboat Level 2 Course over the weekend such a great time. A special thanks to Richard for his enthusiasm, knowledge and wit and to everybody else for making us feel so welcome. It’s a great location to be based at and hopefully we’ll be back real soon along with a boat...!! We are still debating exactly what we are looking for but when we do, we’ll be in touch.
Once again, many thanks and we’ll see you again soon.
Best regards
Jon and Wendy Challinor

 

Hi Rob, Terry, Wyn
Just a short note to say thank you for the Power Boat Course RYA Level 2.
From the moment that I first spoke to Terry on the phone, everyone there at Porth Daniel was friendly and accommodating. The instruction was superb, being pitched at just the right level, the theory being interspersed between plenty on practical hands on tuition.
Having only spent a short amount of time on a power boat before, I now have the skills to handle a boat and equally as important (or more so in my case) the confidence and ability to navigate my way through the Menai Straits safely…although time will tell on this one (hopefully no props left on the Platters)

The amount of knowledge and experience that Rob has is phenomenal, and I feel that I have gained a little bit of this.

I would highly recommend Porth Menai’s course to anyone.

Terry, as I mentioned on the phone, I am in the process of buying at boat and would like to store it at Porth Menai. I should be in a position to know this coming Friday what it will be…hopefully somewhere around the 27’ mark if all goes well. As soon as I know I will let you know, and hopefully you still have space available.
Kind regards
