Need A Licence has been approved by the Queensland Government to deliver Boatsafe, RMDL (Boat) and PWCL (Jet Ski) licence training and assessment.
The process is:
- Complete the online study to ensure that you have the required minimum level of knowledge to pass the Queensland Government multiple choice theory assessment . You are allowed 2 attempts to score 100% in the theory test.
- Book into a course date (Click to see Practical Training Calendar). This includes approximately 30 to 45 mins per person training and practising the skills as demonstrated in the video (https://www.msq.qld.gov.au/licensing
Practical Assessment - Recreational Marine Driver Licence). You have only 1 attempt per day at an unassisted competency based practical assessment
3. If you are new to boating or jet-skiing
Call 0438 110 623 if you want to discuss or book lessons.
If you are new to boating or jet-skiing or just need some extra practice, then it would be advisable to obtain some extra training from a friend or book a lesson with us beforehand.
A lesson on the water in our boat with our trainer will cost you $100 per hour with up to 4 other people.
A lesson on the water on our Jetski and trainer will cost you $180 per hour for 1 on 1 tuition.
4. Once you have achieved the required level of competency and have been issued with your Statement of Competency you must present this to any Queensland Transport and Main Roads Office and pay the prescribed fee. This is then added to your Customer Reference Number (CRN) on your drivers licence and is a perpetual licence.
