Hello! New Member

Hi, I am a new member and new to boating! I have just completed the RYA Powerboat level 2 course and I am looking at buying a Mercury Ocean Runner 460 with Mercury 60hp. Are there any instructors out there who offer coming aboard on the first few journeys and helping out with a newbie trying to gain more experience, local to Christchurch Harbour, Dorset, UK?

Thanks!

Hi and welcome to the forum. I'm sure some of the RIB guys from that area will be along soon with ideas how you can get started on these early trips.
