Not a bad couple of days in the office… 👀🚤

Mendez Marine had the pleasure of training Richard Hammond for his RYA Powerboat Level 2 onboard his own new boat.

Plenty of close-quarters handling, manoeuvring, high-speed work and, naturally, a fair bit of Hammond-style entertainment along the way. 😎

Got your own boat? We can train you onboard it.

Don’t have a boat but fancy getting out on the water? Our charter partner Wayfinder Yacht Charters can get you afloat. 🌊🚤

🌍 Planning to Boat Abroad This Year? You’ll Likely Need an ICC

If you’re heading to Europe or chartering overseas, the International Certificate of Competence (ICC) is often a legal requirement.

At Mendez Marine, we make the process straightforward — whether you’re starting from scratch or already experienced.

✔ RYA Powerboat Level 2 → ICC (vessels up to 10m)
✔ RYA Day Skipper (Motor) → ICC (over 10m)
✔ ICC Direct Assessment (for experienced owners)

We’ll guide you to the right route based on your experience and how you plan to use your boat.

No unnecessary steps — just the quickest, most effective way to get you qualified.

Get it sorted before the season starts.

Great few days in Palma onboard this absolutely stunning Technohull Alpha 40 chase boat.

Powered by twin Mercury 500Rs, we focused on high-speed handling in both flat water and building sea states — working towards the top end of the boat’s performance in a controlled and safe manner.

Working through trim, engine height, weight distribution and throttle control, we were able to really dial the boat in and get it performing exactly as it should.

A seriously capable bit of kit — and a great crew and owners to work with throughout

🚤 Back in the Water — Now Let’s Get You Back On It

After a winter ashore, it’s completely normal to feel slightly out of sync with your boat.

Our Own Boat Tuition is straightforward, practical, and delivered onboard your vessel — focused on getting you back to a solid, confident standard quickly.

⚓ Close-quarters manoeuvring
⚓ Boat handling in real conditions
⚓ Systems refresher where needed

No classroom, no unnecessary theory — just proper time on the water.

Start the season confident, not cautious.
