It is imperative that the curriculum is adhered to; there can be no modifications or variations as that would change the course verification.

Course
Modules

If you're a novice powerboater or simply wish to improve your skill in docking and navigating in confined spaces, this program is tailored for you. The modules in the Boat Control On-Water Training Course are constructed to impart essential boating abilities to leisure boaters or individuals employed to run a marine patrol vessel. Guided by a NSBC Certified Instructor, the course gradually covers topics from safety equipment and pre-launch procedures to docking and refueling in tight conditions, with each task gradually being practiced from idle speed to displacement, and finally planing mode.

​

While every module of the course may warrant a Certificate of Completion, it should be noted that this course does not lead to an instructor certification.
