About this Course
Our emergency procedures training is a completely bespoke, exciting scenario-based course that prepares you for emergencies that can happen on board. We use realistic props and effects to make this a course like no other.
We use 2 boats and 2 instructors at a time to enable us to teach aspects that cannot be taught effectively with just one boat. This allows for realistic man overboard scenarios, towing procedures and multi vessel coordination that you'll encounter in real emergencies.
Our 4 day course incorporates a certified RYA First Aid course with our bespoke check card system , giving you comprehensive emergency response capability.

Feedback from people who have trained with us
"The knowledge I gained from this Emergency Rescue training was truly amazing. The practical scenarios were especially valuable, helping to build my confidence and improve my understanding of emergency response situations. Each scenario provided insight into the types of injuries a casualty may have and how to respond effectively. This hands-on approach made the training both engaging and realistic. I strongly believe this type of training should be included in STCW courses, as it equips participants with essential skills that can make a real difference in emergency situations."

"Compared with many first aid courses I have attended in the past, this training was much more intensive and unique because of the role-playing activities. I had never previously attended such a practical and engaging training course covering emergency situations and search and rescue (SAR) operations in a powerboat. Those sections were especially valuable and provided a unique learning experience. Thank you."

"This was the first time I have done a course like this. It is not about how to drive boats. It is about how to respond in emergencies. That is critical for the work we do. Paula did an amazing job."
