Flightmanager Posted January 8, 2007 Share Posted January 8, 2007 G'day Paul , Licencing details can be found HERE . If the craft you hire does not exceed 10 knots , no licence is required . Ross Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

strikey pete Posted January 10, 2007 Share Posted January 10, 2007 mate my mate just got his licence. Just went to waterways & done the test, nothing else. Although they did send him a DVD to watch. Yea i did it that way aswell, really is too easy. $10 DVD from waterways and they send you a certificate of completion with it. Take the test at the waterways office and all done.
