Motor's boat lesson
This course is intended for anyone wishing to obtain the Swiss boat licence for motor boat on inland waters. The candidat needs to be Swiss resident
The candidate learns and does the examination on a Littoral of 5.50 meters equipped with an outboard motor of 100 HP. All maneuvers, on-board safety and main sailor knots are trained prior to the official examination.
All maneuvers are practiced in the port, except the "man overboard ", you must demonstrate a good command of the vessel and its speed at all times.
The exam takes place aboard the same boat, an inspector comes from the SAN (swiss autorities) at Port Choiseul from May to October, during the other months the tests are provided at Eaux-Vives.
We propose only session of 1 hour 1/2 to avoid to many appointments (saving travels) and we have more time to practice all exercices.
