| Re: Boat licence
| Quote: | |  | | | Really? A licence to rent a boat? Surely not. I didnt realise you needed one to own a boat | | | | | We are talking about Switzerland here... This link to one of the Boat Schools might help to clear things up a bit. Roughly this means Pedalos are OK Rowing boats OK (ID) For Motor boats (less powerful) - You have to be at least 18 years old, Deposit Fr.100.- 18-25 year olds Deposit Fr. 200.- > they explain the rules For the more powerful ones (40 PS) at least 25 years old Credit Card Deposit Fr. 500.- > you are supposed to know the rules already! For the sailing boat they hire out you need a D Licence Credit Card Deposit Fr. 500.- The possibility of doing the Theory exam in English is mentioned here. Seems you still don’t need a licence for a boat with less than 15m2 sail area. By motor boats the limit is 6kW. If anyone finds any mistakes in this, please let me know and I’ll edit it.
