Australian Boating College on Sydney Weekender

The team at the Australian Boating College Sydney are stoked that Channel 7’s Sydney Weekender chose us to be featured in their episode that was all about boating.

You’ll see us with host Sophie Falkiner at our Cammeray venue, as she goes through the General Boat Licence Course.

As Sophie explains during her high-speed portion of the Practical Boating Experience, “Learning to handle a boat moving slowly gives you a lot more confidence when the boat’s traveling at speed…”

Of course, the low-speed stuff will get you home, but driving at high speed “is by far the funnest way to get back on the wharf.”

We’re so pleased to have taken her out on the water and can’t wait to take you out in one of our courses today!
