Hire boats and other commercial or public use craft

If your boat is not privately owned and managed, such as a hire boat, small passenger vessel, clubs and societies activity craft, café boat, etc, etc. your examiner is likely to need to be authorised specifically to undertake the examination for that type of craft.

There is a tick box on the search page, tick this and the examiners that are listed are authorised to carry out examinations to the 2002 Boat Safety Scheme Standards for non-private craft.

You should also note the information on the affect of gas safety legislation on such boats - LINK

Apart from the training in the different checks for non-private craft, all examiners undergo the same training and skills updates.
