Welcome to PB Marine Training

We are an RYA Recognised Training Centre specialising in marine VHF radio, electronic navigation and radar courses. Our hands-on approach — using real VHF radio sets and Raymarine radar equipment, no simulators — gives you the skills and confidence you need at sea. Since the early 1990s we have been delivering professional maritime training in several European countries.

Why Choose PB Marine Training?

Small Groups

Personal attention with small class sizes so every student gets hands-on time.

25+ Years Experience

Decades of commercial maritime and training expertise behind every course.

Bilingual Instruction

Courses delivered in English and German by our bilingual instructor.

SRC Exam On-Site

The RYA exam is administered at the end of the SRC course — no additional travel to BAKOM in Biel required.
