Why not combine a family weekend break with one of our powerboat training courses?

After an exhilarating day out on the water, what could be better than retiring to your hotel for a restful evening to meet up with the rest of your family to hear how they enjoyed their day as well. Bournemouth has some of the best sandy beaches in the UK, the New Forest to the east and the spectacular Jurassic Coast to the west.
