10 TIPS TO BECOME A RECREATIONAL BOAT SKIPPER
All along with a rental boat, the companies also offer boat skippers, who are responsible for the boats during the rental period. But, it is your choice whether you want to book the boat with a skipper or without. I think that it’s much better to book the boat with a skipper otherwise you will entirely be responsible for the boat. So, that’s why they are really helpful as well sometimes if you are stuck in any trouble. But, to become a skipper it’s mandatory to have a license or permit “PER”. This is the most famous as well as demanded nautical qualification since it is the only thing that permits us to carry bigger vessels.
If you guys are also interested to become a recreational skipper “PER” and the following are some of the basic tips to get that.
Tips:
Tips are discussed below:
1: What is PER?
It is meant by Patron of the recreational boat, PER, it is a Spanish nautical quality as mentioned earlier as well that always permits us to take pleasure boats that are controlled by a royal decree that setups multiple recreational titles. If you'll be having PER then you will be allowed to take boats day and night approx 15 meters depth inside the water.
2: Be sure to need PER:
This title also provides more attributions as well like distance from the coast, its length, etc. Multiple more options as well without having a single knowledge before. If you are more interested to sail at night or want to move further or proceed from the coast, the navigation license permits you to almost two miles or more than it as well. It provides you a title that allows you to sailboat day and night for almost 8 meters while 5 meters from the coast.
3: What does it require to obtain PER?
To get PER, You need some requirements firstly you have to be of almost 18 years old over the date you will be giving a theoretical exam as well as psychophysical recognition in a well-known center.
4: Select the date of examination and enroll:
This is probably the best way to force yourself for giving theoretical exams is to prepare for them by enrolling yourself as it will exert pressure on you to prepare for them. There are multiple calls for PER exams each year that set up the competent administration.
After enrolling yourself, you need to plan your study and try to give some more time to them. While PER is not too much complicated.
5: Do you have to prepare at any school for this test?
It is entirely dependent on you if you feel like that you need proper guidance or training for this test then you should go to any school otherwise you can even study by yourself but teacher are aware of your weakness means they know where students lack the most. So, it’s better to join any school but not necessary.
6: Types of courses:
Following are the types of courses:
1: PER Face to face courses
2: PER intensive
3: Online PER course
4: Home PER Courses
5: PER courses for companies and groups as well
7: Keys for passing the test:
The most important key is to pay more attention to the 15 questions of beaconing and regulation as well. Between all these, they can only commit 7 failures, and later on, they can even overcome them easily as well.
8: When should its practice be done:
In the past, PER test was very easy for the ones who had done some practice exercises because those questions were used to ask in the test. But, now those questions are not being asked anymore so you have to work hard for it.
9: Will it help outside Spain?
