Keeping your vessel in good order reduces maintenance costs and increases safety. A POBW boat maintenance course will increase both your skill and confidence on the water. This means facing fewer problems – and being confident to solve those that do come up. As a result, a POBW boat maintenance course is a must-do for any intrepid open ocean cruiser.

The POBW course is taught by an industry expert. The course covers Marine Engineering, DC and AC Electrics, Rigging, Plumbing, Boat Building, Engine Maintenance and much more. Because class numbers are small learning is tailored to your situation and your vessel. This means that by the end of the course you will have the knowledge you need to maintain and repair almost everything on board your vessel.

Classes are taught by Ross Porter. Ross is an experienced Marine Engineer, Commercial Skipper, RYA Yacht / Master Instructor, and a friendly soul. He is both approachable and relatable and, as a result, his humorous style makes absorbing a large amount of information a breeze.
