Davy Jones Locker offers BSAC Boat Handling courses that are internationally recognised and accredited by the maritime coastal agency. The aim of the Seamanship Package is to give students with little or no skills & experience, the theoretical and practical ability to operate a small powerboat safely. This license will allow you to run a boat up to 10 metres long and is accepted in Australia.

Ex Davy Jones Locker student Harry Smith is jetting off to the tropical islands of Vanuatu to continue his dive career as a PADI Dive Instructor.

Harry came to DJL early last year and undertook the Divemaster Internship program. From there he completed the Instructor course and Master Scuba Diver Trainer course. Only 2 weeks after completing these courses with DJL, Harry was offered a job through the PADI website.

Vanuatu is a chain of around 80 small volcanic islands located between Fiji and New Zealand, we are sure Harry will excel in his new dive career in paradise and wish him the best of luck!
