Get your boat & jet ski combo without leaving the Maroochydore area. Beginner-friendly, BoatSafe approved training on sheltered water at our nearby Maroochydore base, with all equipment provided.
Boat & Jet Ski Combo courses for Maroochydore and the surrounding area, run on sheltered Sunshine Coast water by a local, BoatSafe approved team. Whether you are near the Maroochy River mouth and Cotton Tree or out towards Alexandra Headland, we make getting licensed simple: one day, all equipment provided, and the same course at every location.
Want the freedom of both a boat and a jet ski? The combo covers your Queensland recreational marine licence and your personal watercraft (PWC) licence together in one day. It is our most popular choice for families and couples, and the only route if you do not already hold a boat licence.
Getting your boat & jet ski combo near Maroochydore is easy. We train on sheltered water at our Maroochydore base on the Maroochy River, a short trip from Maroochydore, Alexandra Headland and Mooloolaba. The lower Maroochy River at Cotton Tree is sheltered tidal water that suits first-time boat and jet ski training. You complete the theory online, then join us for a hands-on day close to home.
The combo bundles the recreational marine (boat) licence and the personal watercraft (PWC) licence into a single course day. You cover both assessments with the one set of online theory, so it is a single day rather than two.
The combo is booked as one course covering both licences, which is why it is our most popular package. You give up a single day rather than two, and both licences last a lifetime. Current pricing shows in the booking calendar when you pick your date and location.
You train on both the boat and the jet ski with a patient local instructor on sheltered water. You practise handling each craft and complete both practical assessments across the day, with small class sizes giving you plenty of hands-on time on both.
We supply the boat, the jet ski, lifejackets and all equipment, plus the launch site and sheltered water. Bring photo ID, sun protection, and a towel and change of clothes, since the jet ski portion of the day is a wet one.
Every course is run by experienced local instructors on sheltered Sunshine Coast water. We are a BoatSafe approved provider, so the certificate you earn is the one Queensland accepts for your recreational marine or PWC licence.

Yes. The combo covers your Queensland boat licence and your jet ski (PWC) licence in a single day. You complete one set of online theory beforehand, then train and complete both practical assessments on the water. It is the quickest way to get fully licensed, and the only route if you do not already hold a boat licence.
The combo fee covers one set of online theory, the theory recap and assessment, your practical training in both the boat and on the jet ski, and your first practical assessment for each licence. Current pricing shows in the booking calendar once you pick a date and location. It is booked as one course rather than two, so you give up a single day instead of two.
If you want to ride a jet ski and have never been licensed, yes: the jet ski course on its own assumes you already hold a boat licence, so the combo is your way in. It also saves you a second day, since both licences are covered in one. If you only ever plan to drive a boat, the boat licence on its own is the better fit.
You must be at least 16 to hold either the recreational marine or PWC licence in Queensland, so 16 is the minimum age for the combo. Both licences last for life once issued, so it is a great investment to make early.
Yes. We supply the boat, the jet ski, lifejackets and all training equipment, plus the launch site and sheltered water at all three locations. Just bring photo ID, sun protection, and a towel and change of clothes, since the jet ski part of the day gets you wet.
