COMMERCIAL ENDORSEMENT INFORMATION –
If you want to work in a commercial environment and take up to 12 paying passengers to sea in a vessel of up to 24m then it is a legal requirement to hold an RYA/MCA certificate of competence with a commercial endorsement. That shows that you have undergone additional training, a practical examination and a medical fitness test to operate a commercial vessel. The level of endorsement you hold determines the categories of water you can operate in.
The RYA Level 2 Powerboat can be commercially endorsed to operate in Category 6 waters. This category is defined as within 3 miles of a nominated departure point, and never more than 3 miles from land, in favourable weather and daylight.
The RYA Advanced Powerboat (with exam) can be commercially endorsed to operate in Category 3 waters, once the holder has more than 2 years relevant experience. This category is defined as up to 20 miles from a safe haven.
For categories above this, the Yachtmaster Offshore can be endorsed to operate up to 150 miles from a safe haven and the Yachtmaster Ocean can be endorsed to operate worldwide.
Commercial vessels are also required to be surveyed and certified before being used commercially, and their size and level of equipment determines the category of water they can operate in, as well as the level of qualification and commercial endorsement held by the skipper.
For Category 6 you need the following information –
RYA Powerboat Level 2 license (This can be done with Mylor Sailing School) RYA VHF Marine Radio Course (This can be done with Mylor Sailing School) Professional Practices and Responsibilities (PPR) (This can be done with Falmouth Training Solutions) RYA First Aid (This can be done with Mylor Sailing School) RYA Sea Survival (This can be done with Falmouth Training Solutions)

You then need to complete this form for the Commercial Endorsement to send off to the RYA – RYA Commercial Endorsement Link Once you have completed all of the above Send the following items to: RYA Certification, RYA House, Ensign Way, Hamble, Hampshire SO31 4YA: Your original RYA Powerboat Level 2 certificate Your Professional Practices and Responsibilities certificate The RYA completed Commercial Endorsement Form Your original, completed ML5 medical fitness form (They can only accept the latest version of the ML5 form less than one year old) A copy of your RYA Sea Survival or STCW Personal Survival Techniques (PST) A copy of your RYA VHF Marine Radio License A passport sized photo with your name on the back The application fee stated on the Commercial Endorsement Form
Re-validating your commercial endorsement – All commercial endorsements must be revalidated every five years by proving at least 150 days of actual sea service on appropriate vessels during the previous five years, and be in possession of a valid medical fitness certificate. If you are unable to prove the requisite sea service but are able to demonstrate that during at least half of the five year period you have been employed on duties closely associated with the management and operation of one or more of the appropriate types of vessels, you may have your certificate considered for revalidation.
For further information on the suitability of a vessel please see this link to the RYA website for coding vessels – RYA Link to Vessel Coding Information

Thank you for booking your Powerboat Level 2 course with us. Please find joining instructions relating to this course below.
About the course
You probably already have information about the course but if you would like to refresh your memory please view our webpage. Please select a page depending on whether you are undertaking the Level 2 on Your Boat or on Our Boats .
All course bookings are subject to our Terms & Conditions of Business which can be found on our website – Terms & Conditions of Business
If you have a chance, feel free to practice your knots ahead of the course. It is helpful if you can find a piece of string and have a go as then we can ‘tidy up’ your knot tying rather than start from scratch. That said if you don’t have the time ahead of the course we can easily fit it in during the two days. Please see this video where we explain how to tie each of the knots that you will learn.
If you are doing the Level 2 on your Own Boat, please look at Own Boat Equipment and read the section below.
Here is the link for Own Boat Equipment. If you don’t have all of them then do call us as we can bring items like lifejackets, waterproofs, flares and charts with us. We are also very happy to find some time during a course for a trip to a chandlers so we can help you to choose the right items for your boat. Please let us know if there is anything on the list that you do not have on board your boat and we can discuss with you whether it is either critical to get it ahead of the course, whether we can lend it to you or whether a trip to the chandlers is necessary on the first morning. Things to remember relating to your own boat:
If payment has not been made in full for this course please contact us.
Remember too that at the time of booking/payment we have a special offer on VHF courses. If you intend booking a VHF course too then it is materially cheaper to do this now as the rate is reduced for that course from £100 to £75 per head (plus RYA fee). You don’t need to decide the dates you will attend the VHF course though and you can schedule a date at some time later – we run these courses every two weeks.
Arrival time, Directions & Parking
Unless agreed otherwise, we start all courses at 9am so please aim to be there 10 – 15mins early to allow you to park and for us to make you a tea/coffee etc. If you are running late or need last minute directions please call the Office number (01202 686666) as it is diverted to our mobiles on the morning of courses.
Please ensure that you know which of our locations your course is based at:
Things to think about bringing
We will provide teas and coffees and you can either get sandwiches from the convenience store on site (Cobbs Quay Marina & Lymington – NOT available at Port of Poole Marina). You should budget about £5 per day for lunch. You are welcome to bring your own packed lunch if you wish.
Accommodation
There are plenty of places to stay in Poole and Lymington to suit all budgets. Bear in mind that if you are booking for just one night that B&Bs will often be reticent to take a one night booking a few weeks ahead of a course but nearer the time will want to fill the bed. Therefore do call any places that said they were full as places seem to free themselves up! If you need any further advice on accommodation please contact our office. A list of accommodation is available here .
We look forward to welcoming you shortly. If in the meantime you have any questions please do not hesitate to contact us.
