I did my Powerboat Level 2 and Deckhand courses with Absolute Yachting and I cannot recommend them enough!

Starting off in the yachting industry is intimidating, but Absolute Yachting helped so much with their honesty and them truly wanting the best for all of their learners.

Matt and Leigh-Ann are a blessing and great guides to all those who want to learn the skills and ins and outs of yachting.

They are unbelievably professional, fun, helpful and have a wealth of experience and knowledge.

I have never found myself looking forward to each class so much and finding all the content presented in a way that made it so interesting.

I believe that I will always look back at my time with Absolute Yachting as the true start of the journey in this new industry.

I am so glad to have done my courses with them and would encourage anyone to do the same.

Tianne

I recently did my Powerboat Level II and Deckhand courses through Absolute Yachting and I honestly can’t recommend them enough.

Starting out in the yachting industry is a new challenge on its own but getting guidance and direction from them, on top of a very well designed course, shows that they care about accurately preparing their students for the job while helping them be successful in their search for suiting opportunities.

Matt and Leigh-Anne put a lot of effort into making the course educational, fun and interesting. I’d wake up each morning exited to get to class and learn more.

There are a lot of courses out there to choose from, but we found that they treat each student like another chick under their wing and honestly care about how you perform in your job one day and that you end up in a job best suited for you as an individual.

10+/10 review if that was possible!
