How to obtain boat driving license in Singapore ?

[Batok Seri]

I took mine at the SAF Yacht Club. Its open to non-members and the course package was among the cheapest. Another advantage is your practical is at the same location as the test area.

Its good fun and though I thought at first it was a pain to have to obtain PPDL just to operate a jetski, it helps to understand the rules of the road so to speak.

Some may have been lucky not to have been caught operating a motored water craft without license but the Police Coast Guard do conduct checks.

All this was ten years ago though.

I'm curious. On the road we have traffic lights to guide us. In the air, it's radar.

If you are boating around the perimeters of the island, are there any traffic rules ? Do you rely on stuff like radar ?

Forgive me for asking the obvious. Who is going to check if you have licence on the high seas? If I build a catamaran, who is going to stop and check for my licence?

I suppose the pirates of the high seas will conduct checks. If you don't have PPCD license issued by MPA Singapore, they will prob rob & rape you & crew.

Will your wife allow that!

I tell the wife it is for Junior on his 18th birthday.

Got. Red and green determine the port and starboard based on the flow
