Boat Licence Course

The Australian Boating College course is a nationally recognised Licence Course. At its completion, participants receive a certificate which they can present to Vic Roads, whereupon a licence will be issued. No further testing is required. It’s the safest and best way to obtain your licence.

Personal Watercraft Operators can also sit the course to obtain not only their General Boat Licence, but also their PWC endorsement to operate Personal Water Craft. No further PWC exam will be required after the course.
