Mandatory Safe Boating

Mandatory Safe Boating

On the Water Training (Lower mainland only)

Combine the Pleasure Craft Operator Card (PCOC) course with this informative on the water session. Learn the theory and then apply it. We recommend taking the classroom course first and then practicing some of the skills first hand.

This practical course is taught on your OWN BOAT. There is little logic in learning practical training on a boat that you will never use again. Learn how to handle your own boat, and better yet, bring your partner or friend along and all will learn at the same time for the same price.

Agonic Marine will do a "mini survey" and safety check of your boat. We will not operate an unsafe boat, neither should you. Being prepared and confident of your vessel is the first step to safe and enjoyable boating.

Price : $50.00 per hour (minimum of 3 hours)

Topics Covered

You may choose the amount of hours for instruction and what you would like to learn. There may be areas that you would like to brush up on or learn from the beginning. It is your choice. We will work with you to put together a program that you will get the most from to become a confident boater.
