All Personal Watercraft Courses
The RYA Personal Watercraft (Jet Ski) Course Scheme is a structured training programme designed for riders of all experience levels, from beginners to advanced users. Recognised worldwide, this course teaches essential skills for safely operating a personal watercraft (PWC), including launching, handling, navigation, and emergency procedures.
The one-day RYA Personal Watercraft Proficiency Course covers the fundamentals of jet ski control, manoeuvring at speed, collision avoidance, and key safety considerations. It is suitable for both private owners and those hiring PWCs. Successful completion often qualifies riders for insurance discounts and hire permissions abroad.
For those seeking a professional qualification, the RYA PWC Instructor Course enables experienced riders to teach the syllabus at RYA-recognised centres.
Many UK harbours and coastal areas require an RYA PWC certificate to ride legally, making this course essential for responsible jet ski users. It ensures safety, confidence, and responsible enjoyment on the water.
