Motorboat School

Training:

A Category A qualification is required for motorboats being driven on Swiss waters with a drive power of 6 KW and above (4.4 KW for Lake Constance).

We will guide you in all matters from your boat theory test through to your undoubtedly successful practical motor boat exam.

We will also be responsible for the organisation of your training and for formalities with the shipping office.

The individual needs of our students are very important to us. The pace of learning is adjusted accordingly to your prior knowledge and level of training.
