I want to get my boating license, what do I have to do?
Would you like to get your boating license? Open the link of the Navigation Office : svsa.sid.be.ch to find out the complete and detailed procedure!
Theory test
You can start the practical lessons before the theory test. However, if you want to take the practical exam, you first need the theory exam and then the letter of authorization (only for non-cantonal students) from the shipping office in your canton of residence. Information at: www.vks.ch
To obtain the Swiss boat license category A (for motorboats with more than 6kw propulsion power, Lake Constance: 4.4kw) or category D (for sailboats with more than 15m² sail area, Lake Constance: 12m²), you must pass the theory test. The theory test is the same for both the sailing license and the motorboat license.
Rating system
– 60 questions per questionnaire
– There are 3 answers to each question
– More than one answer can be correct
– 60 questions x 3 possible answers = 180 points
– Each incorrectly marked answer = 1 error point
– Each correct answer not ticked = 1 error point
– None or all answers ticked = 3 error points
– The test is passed with a maximum of 15 error points
The exam preparation can be internalized relatively quickly with diligence, a little discipline and the appropriate self-study material.
Theory documents – teaching materials are available as a theory book, eBook, CD/DVD for PC & MAC and as an app for smartphones and tablets.
And if you don’t feel completely confident before the theory test, you can of course book a theory course with us
