Boating License Code

Boating code : a mandatory step to sail

Before taking to the sea, you will have to pass your boating code and your boating license. There is actually not only one boating license, but several categories. For each one there are revision books for both the boating code and the boating license tests so that you are ready on the day of the license. A boating license book will not only help you before taking the test, but also to maintain your knowledge once you have obtained your boating license. The two major authors in this category are Vagnon and Code Rousseau.

However, the boating license is only necessary for a motorboat of 6 HP or more. Below that, you can navigate without a license. In marine waters, you can take the coastal boating license from 16 years old. It allows you to navigate day and night in marine waters AND inland waters. There is an offshore extension to the 6 nautical mile limit with the coastal option. For a sailboat, no license is necessary if it does not have an engine of more than 6 HP.

Don't take the risk of failing your exam, get a boat license code and a coastal license test!

Which license to take and how to revise your boating license code ?

The choice of the boating license you wish to take depends on the use you wish to make of it. First of all, you will have to determine if you want a pleasure boat license for navigation in lakes/rivers, along the coast or to take the open sea. Then you will have to register for the boating license code as well as the coastal license code in the first instance, then for the boating license exam. Thus, you have the choice between the inland water license, the coastal license and the offshore license, each one having its specificities:

  • The boating license for inland waters or river license limits you to navigation in lakes and rivers. It is divided into 2 categories, the inland water license and the Great inland water license. The first one limits you to a boat up to 20 meters, the second one allows you to pass this limit. If you are interested in this license, you will find a lot of material to revise your inland water license code with the Vagnon Code - Pleasure Craft License Inland Water Option
  • The Pleasure boat license or coastal license allows you to navigate close to the coast, up to 6 miles from a shelter (about 11 kilometers) without any engine power limit. You will be able to navigate a boat, jet-ski, jet ski or scooter from 16 years old and dive near the coast. If you are interested in the coastal license code, we offer at Rousseau the Coastal license test Code Rousseau to train and be ready for the big day.
  • The Pleasure boat license or offshore extension allows you to no longer be limited in terms of distance from the coast and take the open sea without restriction from 16 years. Being the highest boat license, you should not neglect its preparation. This is why we offer you numerous books for the boating license code and boating license tests. The ultimate is the Code Rousseau Deep Sea Extension Exam Kit. You will find there in particular a boat code extension hauturiere, a boat license test extension hauturiere, a training contract, a compass and a chart SHOM permit 9999. If you only need the code, no problem, the Code Vagnon - Pleasure Craft License - Deep Sea Extension will fulfill this function perfectly.
