By far the best in business, thats if you have competition Tristan haha Love your work and support . Thank you 🤩
I did a boat handling course with Tristian from Boatwise and couldn’t recommend it more highly. I had basically no experience docking a 35-foot flybridge beforehand and wasn’t very confident, but after just one session my confidence improved more than I expected and I was able to do it on my own. Tristian explains things in a really clear, practical way and stays calm the whole time, which makes learning close quarters handling much easier. He’s also a great guy to spend a few hours on the water with - easy going, patient, and knows his stuff. Worth every cent.
Have had some great lessons with Tristan on the water. Help me out on the weekend with a small issue. He was happy to take the call and advise me. Thanks again, Tristan.
Boat Wise is an excellent step for those wishing to gain boating skills in skilled hands.
Great service and great tuition lesson by Tristian. His lessons make you gradually feel better as you practice. Very happy I choose him today and loved Boat wises work. Thank you 🙏🏼
My training with Boat Wise was excellent. My instructor, Tristan, was professional, patient, and incredibly knowledgeable. He explained everything clearly, making the entire process straightforward. The practical training truly built my confidence on the water. I highly recommend Boat Wise!
Tristan is a fantastic mentor with amazing mentorship qualities. He has taught me the cirrect simplified steps with respects to all aspects of boating. I strongly recommend his service to those wishing to learn from a professional who has great ability to Transfer knowledge and teach beginners, and also to refine skills of experienced boaters
Great powerboat handling course with Tristian. Practical and professional, I felt confident docking an Axopar 28’ straight away, great day out on the water.
The team at Boat Wise are the best. Highly recommended if you want to take your boating skills to the next level.
Highly recommend - great service. We're new to boating, Tristian took us through all the basics launching and retrieving, docking and pulling away from dock, manoeuvring in wind and swell, anchoring, staying on plain, navigating around the harbour. We can head out with a lot more confidence.
I cannot recommend BoatWise highly enough. My friend and I got our boat licenses together, but as total newcomers to boating we wanted to get a solid base of knowledge beyond what is provided in the licensing course before heading out on our own. We booked a one day course with Tristian, and spent 6 hours out on the water with him. Every element of the training was exceptional. Tristian is in the first instance a fantastic teacher - extremely knowledgeable, well-organised, clear in his instruction, patient, and good-natured - but he is also just a great guy to spend a day with out on the water. He built the training specifically for our level of experience and capabilities, and throughout the day was constantly checking in the make sure that we were confident and happy before moving on to the next skill. The amount of knowledge and number of skills that he was able to transfer to us over the course of the day was honestly unbelievable. When we had covered the basics by mid-afternoon and felt confident handling the boat in a range of scenarios ranging from slow speed handling and docking to driving through heavy sailboat traffic, Tristian was happy to take us out to the heads to teach us how to read and navigate through waves and rougher waters. The training was totally hands-on: other than when Tristian was demonstrating various skills for us to practice we were behind the wheel for the entire time. I started the day having essentially never driven a boat, and by the end I felt completely confident to handle a boat in a wide variety of conditions within the harbour. If you're getting started out and want to fast track your journey to be one that is safe, stress-free, and just plain fun then there is quite simply no money better spent than booking in some training with BoatWise.
Highly recommend if you are new to boating. I took private lesson and it was well worth. By the end of my practice session, I was so much confident to drive a boat on my own. Had a good fun in the harbour.
