Our objective is to become the regions’ premier Powerboat School. “Constance of Blakeney” is our flagship, the last Watson 42 Lifeboat built for the RNLI. She is now MCA Cat 2 coded and equipped with up to date integrated electronics.

 

 

Legal Information: our Company details and how to get in touch with us:

Members of the Sea Palling Voluntary Lifeboat training with “Constance” and “Gretel”.

Two Members of the Light Dragoons with Alan, one of our Instructors on “Hansel”

“Hansel” and “Gretel” are our two RIBS, Gretel is an Italian Leisure RIB with a 90hp Four stroke outboard, while  Hansel is modelled on an RNLI B Class Inshore Lifeboat, and fitted with a 115hp Direct Injection Two stroke outboard.  Two RIBs but with different characteristics and advantages - usually used for Level 2, Intermediate and Advanced Courses.

 

Our Instructors are all experienced and of course RYA qualified.  Not just in the RYA scheme but also vastly knowledgeable in the tidal waters of the East coast.  Equally they are all enthusiasts and own and operate their own powercraft in addition to the many hours and miles teaching on the School craft.

 

 

 

We all personally enjoy boating whether under power or sail: the RYA Training Schemes have resulted in United Kingdom recreational boating having a safety record that really is second to none.   It is our aim to help individuals, families, friends, enthusiasts or beginners to safely and confidently enjoy being afloat.

 

We are also proud to have run Courses including Level 2, Safety Boat, Advanced and VHF SRC for many professional water users and organisations, including   Eastern Sea Fisheries, Norfolk Constabulary, RNLI Happisburgh, Hemsby, Mundesley and Sea Palling Voluntary Lifeboats, Light Dragoons and Associated British Ports.

 

We are  fortunate in that we are boating in such a beautiful part of the world, Biased- yes possibly!  East Anglia including  the Norfolk and  Suffolk coast where we operate is geologically “young” and undergoing constant change from the elements.  We recognise our own responsibility to minimise our effects on the environment: recycled paper, oil free paints and treatments, low emission engines and planting trees to become carbon neutral have been included in our operations.  We have been past Finalists in the EDP Business Awards Environment, and we will continue that ethos.
