RYA Approved Training Centre

Falmouth Powerboat School

Falmouth Powerboat School (FPS) was established in 2011 to run alongside Falmouth School of Sailing (FSOS), with Falmouth Training Solutions created later in 2015. As an independent RYA recognised training centre, Falmouth Powerboat School runs all our Power and Motorboat training, offering a wide range of courses suitable for beginners through to commercial skippers.

Our friendly yet highly professional approach to power and motorboat training has seen us become the leading provider of motor and powerboat courses in Cornwall. Every one of our instructors hold strong operational commercial experience which enhances the already top-quality training they provide.

Over the years we have expanded and thanks in part to the mild Cornish winter, we are able to deliver courses throughout the year in one of the most scenic parts of England. With our commitment to excellence, we pride ourselves on delivering an unrivalled training experience in a friendly, relaxed environment.

We use a range of boats to ensure you have the most suitable vessel available for your training. Our well-maintained fleet includes:

  • Motor Yachts: Nelson 44 and Sealine F37
  • Powerboats: 6.4m Ribcraft powered by a 175HP Suzuki engine and 5.4m Solent

Our Sister Companies

Alongside Falmouth Powerboat School (FPS) we also run several sister companies. Each entity is well-established with a vast and respected reputation throughout the international maritime industry as well as locally here in Cornwall.
