We’re 5-Star Rated!
Communication was clear and timely. Training material was well presented for pre-reading as well as during the in person session. Start and finish time was on time. Facilities both, the boat and the classroom was perfect. Adam is very knowledgeable, affable, clear and patient both on and off the water. Would highly recommend ABC for their courses. ABC came recommended to me by a previous student and both my husband and I were not disappointed. Sign up if you are thinking about it.
Adam Smith was absolutely phenomenal. An absolutely brilliant boat driving instructor. Took complex boating terms and explained them in a way that was clear, simple, and easy to remember. Everyone in our group — over 10 people — passed thanks to his guidance. Highly recommend!
Very well delivered course. Instructor was great, calm and clear with instructions and direction. Would recommend anyone who wants their license to use ABC.
Absolutely unreal course with unreal instructors. Adam was super professional and explained everything that was needed and then some. Answered any and all questions we had, even if they weren’t directly related to the course. Will be back for a 1 on 1 and Radio course.
Thanks very much for a very well presented and clear manual and instructions and subsequent face to face lecture with Pete my instructor and examiner. We finished the course with practical boat handling at Gosford Brisbane waters. I highly recommend ABC Sydney for a boat licence (skipper's Licence). Once again thank you.
An engaging instructor who provides comprehensive training in practical knowledge, demonstrating a deep understanding of effective training methods. Highly proficient in practical assessments.👍

I had a fantastic experience with Australian Boating College Sydney while completing my Boat Licence Course at the Royal Motor Yacht Club in Newport. The setting in the courtyard was great, but what really made the day exceptional was our instructor, Phil.
Phil’s knowledge, patience, and clear way of explaining everything made both the theory and practical components easy to understand. He kept the session engaging and ensured everyone felt confident before moving on to the practical assessment. Out on the water, he was just as professional, providing great guidance while making sure we were comfortable and safe.
If you’re looking to get your boat licence, I highly recommend ABC Sydney—especially with Phil as your instructor!

Great place to get your boating license started. Great and helpful instructors, hands on boating in a good boat, very clear and informative theory, all topped up with some good humor. Highly recommend. And I am off to Service NSW for my license
I completed the NSW Boat Licence program today and it was invaluable in helping me fully understand all the requirements for safe boating The practical part of the course was amazing and really helped build my skills. The instructor Phil was a true expert and answered and discussed all aspects in simple practical language that helped cement the requirements in my knowledge. I give this experience 10/10!
Great day with ABC getting my boat and PWC licence all in a day. The practical component was a lot of fun and great a confidence building while also preparing us for the knowledge in the afternoon. It was a big day but worth it. Thank you to the whole team!
Just finished and had an amazing experience with ABC Boating. The course was incredibly well-structured and informative, combining practical experience on the boat with navigation training, all in one day. I was able to complete both my PWC and boat licences, which was super convenient. The price is very reasonable, especially considering the focus on safety and the expert knowledge shared throughout the session. After the practical, we went through the theory in a straightforward and easy to follow manner, ensuring we fully understood the content. Big shoutout to the team at ABC Boating for their professionalism and dedication. I highly recommend their services to anyone looking to get their licences or improve their boating skills. Fantastic job. Thank you Todd and Adam
The practical part of the course was a great learning experience and fun with Steve. The theory part was efficient and effective. Steve and Adam are highly knowledgeable and helpful with a friendly and professional manner. Thank you
Steve & Todd great instructors, they show amazing enthusiasm to your learning and have a want for you to pass
My 14 year old daughter and I did the course today and Todd and Phil were excellent. We had Todd for the practical part and he was great at teaching us how the boat works and safety on the harbour. He pointed out things we should now and emphasised things that are always on the test to help us pass. The theory part of the day also helped to reinforce the knowledge we had learnt all to help us pass the test which we both did. Thank you! I would definitely recommend ABC Boating, they were great and made it a fun day!
Learned a lot also had fun, especially thankful to both coatches paid extra patience and support to English as 2nd language learner. Recommend to all.
What a fantastic course! A jam packed day of learning started with the practical experience exercises which I was very nervous about. Adam was really clear and encouraging and gave me the confidence to complete the assigned tasks. The classroom segment conducted by Todd was thorough and really reinforced the critical concepts. Very pleased to have passed with full marks - I don’t think I could have achieved this without the very structured training provided. Thanks to both Adam and Todd for an excellent day and for helping with other boat related queries.
Great practical and theoretical instruction today in Sydney from Adam & Todd, resulting in a first-attempt 100% score in the test. What more could one ask for?
Great experience on the water with a highly skilled instructor. Classroom lecture and test preparation was highly effective. Got my boat and PWC license very fast. Great price and highly recommended.
I took my 14 year old son for a day of practical and theoretical instruction and finally the exam for his boat and PWC licence last Saturday. The weather was not fantastic but the instructors were! My son enjoyed the practical part a lot and tolerated the theory; he is very nervous around exams but the team at ABC put him to ease and he passed both! We scurried off to the RMS and he now has his paper license and eagerly awaiting the real one in the post as soon as possible. Adam, Justin and the team at ABC were outstanding - they put the entire class of older adults, younger adults, teens and 12 year olds at ease with the content and what to expect in the exam - almost everyone I saw there passed. With the standard of the instruction and a bit of pre-reading this course is fantastic - the absolute added bonus is that there are no additional log book hours required. Do it!

Adam and the team were fantastic it was a great day. Adam was kind enough to come out and teach us on our boat. I highly recommend their services.
Did my boat license and jet ski course. Was very informative and enjoyable. My teacher Todd had good energy and was a pleasure to learn from 🙌
As a boat person of 30 years I found the course amazingly helpful.
I forgot to renew my licence so had to start all over again.
The course went at a good pace for all and made the day interesting and fun. The instructors were great and absolutely supportive to all. We had 15 year olds and 40 year olds in same class and it worked.
This course is exactly what you need for safe boating on sydney harbour or elsewhere.
I think it should be mandatory every 5 years for anyone who has a vessel.
