Boat Handling Courses For You
It is essential that the handling of a RIB is carried out under the control of a qualified person at all times. This includes not only the on-site slow-speed manoeuvring during diving operations but also during the passage from launch point to site and vice versa.

Experience.
There are many boat handlers involved in branch diving activities, who have been successfully handling planing craft for many years and have never gained a recognised qualification. They may be members who have been taught by other experienced members during diving activities or gained the experience by owning their own boat. They may also have proved, over a number of years, that they are capable of handling a RIB in all the required circumstances associated with branch/club diving activities.
