Speaking of kids, a young adult boat licence is available from the age of 12, so kids are catered to as well. It’s a great family experience! Not to mention great peace of mind knowing that your kids know all the rules and can handle a boat competently as well.PWIn NSW, when operating a powered vessel capable of travelling at speeds over 10 knots, you are required to hold a NSW boat licence. Canberra residents who use NSW waterways also need a NSW boat licence. You also require practical training and experience prior to undertaking the NSW Boat Licence test.

Young adults over 12 can apply for a young adult’s licence too, so if the kids are keen, bring them along as well.
Our Boat Licence Course covers many topics, but three of the units are nationally recognized as core competencies adopted by government marine safety authorities to promote the safe use of waterways and to contribute to awareness of boating safety.

The one day boat licence course covers parts of The units of competency:

I recommend this method.
The course fees are good value for money.
To get a PWC Licence, the General Boat Licence test must be passed first. You can do both courses on the 1 day with MTS. If you already have your boat licence you can do the PWC licence as a simple upgrade. You then have to get your PWC licence from the Transport for NSW office or Service NSW, just like a boat licence.
The upgrade consists of a short theory course followed by a 15 questionnaire exam online. You can also complete the course in the 1 day of you choose to do a boat and PWC licence on the same day.
If you’ve ever been on holidays down or up the coast and thought that taking out a jetski looks like fun, you might be surprised to discover that you can’t just hop on – not unless you have a licence. That’s right. In NSW, a special licence is required to ride a personal watercraft (PWC) regardless of what speed it is driven. You can’t just go and get a PWC licence at your local fishing shop or service station either!
Don’t wait till you’re on holidays to find out you can’t go buzzing around the waterways on a PWC! Add the PWC Safety Course on to your one day NSW Boat Licence Course and get it all sorted before you head away.
