					  I highly recommend Torquay Watersports for any course for boating. Not only was it incredibly informative and educational, it was very fun and enjoyable. I personally completed my RYA Powerboat... read more Level 2 and feel incredibly confident driving any boat even after 2 days of learning. Seb is a fantastic instructor who is able to effectively communicate important concepts both practical and theoretical with ease. He ensures that you learn skills confidently and are able to understand the theory behind them to ensure you have a comprehensive understanding. He is incredibly experienced in both boating and teaching and it shows very quickly. It was an awesome course and I will definitely be back next year to learn more.
