You can’t speak to some one 50 metres away — you must slow down to less than 5 knots and go closer

If you are travelling at more than 5 knots — make sure you are at least 50 metres away from EVERYTHING

Post course review

I thoroughly enjoyed the course and found it to be incredibly valuable. The content was comprehensive and well-researched, covering all the key topics in great detail. I appreciated how each module was organized and presented, making it easy to understand. The pace of the course was perfect, allowing me to absorb the material without feeling rushed.
Additionally, Michelle did an excellent job of providing clear explanations, overall, this course exceeded my expectations, and I would highly recommend it to anyone looking to get a marine or PWC license.

Jeff - VHF Course 04/03/2025

Hi my name is Jeff, I am writing a review about my experience with Peninsula Boat Training. I had a course about VHF radio Training. I did all the practical part of the course but when it came to log in to the portal there was a problem. Doug did everything possible at that time to solve this problem, but was unable, so on Monday he tried again - still a problem. Michelle then tried, she also had trouble! After many times she was able to log in, which was a huge relief for me. I cannot thank them both enough their professionalism, understanding, and caring. It was amazing. If anyone is thinking of doing this course don't hesitate to call Peninsula Boat Training. The best service I've had in a very long time thanks again Doug and Michelle.

Michelle was fantastic, she is very friendly organised and knowledgeable.
The on line course was great as I dont live to close to the venues where the courses were undertaken, I could study at home and undertake the Test at my convenience.
Well done Victorian Boat Training would recommend this online course.

My partner and I undertook the online marine licence course and thought it was very well done. Upon signing up, we immediately received access to an abundance of training materials which we were able to go through in our own time. We got our marine licenses in a matter of a couple of days and couldn’t recommend Michelle at Victorian Boat Training more!

The practical approach in the videos really helped me to understand and learn the content, rather than just attempting to memorise it. Thank you it was great!

Mischelle was easy to understand and explained everything clearly made the whole process of learning the rules and also completing course very easy, five stars for her presentation and learning the boat rules and regulations. She also helped everyone set up zoom video lin and I am not very good with computers but she guided me everything and it was a breeze to set up and understand. Big thumbs up from me and highly recommend them for anyone doing training or certicates or liscenses

Potentially one of the best, most comprehensive short online courses I've ever completed. Michelle was very thorough, helpful and made understanding the content a very pleasant experience.

I recently finished the online course, and it greatly contributed to my success in passing the test. The course’s comprehensive coverage of regulations and rules provided me with a solid understanding, while the fantastic presentation and PowerPoint materials made studying a breeze. Its simplicity made learning effortless, resulting in my successful test outcome. Highly recommend this course to anyone preparing for Marine Boat license and JetSki endorsement test.
