Highly recommended - I undertook my Helmsman Training with Richard and was very impressed with how the course was delivered. Professional but friendly, the two day course flew by! Thanks again Richard!

Excellent training, very appropriate and tailored to each participant where necessary. Would highly recommend Richard and his team for the warm and friendly welcome and choice of courses available. Very happy with the day. Thanks

This is a very good training centre. I wanted to learn about driving a narrow boat and I have found it fantastic. This is my second visit and has been worth every penny of the cost.
