iPowerboat - RYA Powerboat Level 2 - Glencoe/Ballachulish, Near Fort William. Scotland
Simon Holloway
More information
Description
iPowerboat is an established RYA Training School based at Ballachulish on the west coast of Scotland, surrounded by the towering mountains of Glencoe, we by far have the best location for using a powerboat. iPowerboat specialises in powerboat training and runs recognised RYA courses from beginners to Advanced level.
Our location provides the perfect environment for training, we have sheltered, secluded bays for practising, and improving your skills. Within a stones throw we can be in the Corran Narrows which can provide a more challenging environment for improving offshore skills.
"Anthem 2" is the main training vessel. It is a commercial Ribquest 6.3m Rigid Inflatable Boat (RIB) custom built and designed specifically for training and handling challenging seas. Anthem 2 is powered by a 140hp 4 stroke Suzuki outboard, which allows to comfortably cruise at 30 knots, and has a top speed of 45 knots. All the latest safety equipment is carried aboard, and life jackets are mandatory. There is a chart plotter fitted which allows you to learn traditional as well as 21st century navigation techniques.
