Women on Water

THIS CLASS IS FULL!  Women on Water (WOW) — allows the Ladies to take the helm! In a relaxed setting we will teach them the rules of the road, safety, handling the lines, bringing the boat in safely and more! 

Be the captain of your journey

MarineMax’s exclusive Women on Water (WOW) courses are designed to get women behind the helm and enjoying the boating lifestyle. The classes are offered at many of our locations throughout the country, and are taught by U.S. Coast Guard licensed captains who have been certified by MarineMax to conduct the lessons.

These small group seminars, for women only, are designed to build confidence by presenting information in an active, fun, and supportive environment. Each four to five-hour class is split in two parts: a classroom session and a practical, on-water session. The laid back approach we take to educating female boaters helps to build confidence that they can be the captain of their own ship - no matter how large or small their boat may be.

Women on Water classes cover a variety of important and practical areas of the boating experience, including:

Boat terminology and anatomy 

Line handling 

Knot tying 

Docking 

Boat operation and handling 

Safety 

Rules of the water 

Hands-on experience on the water 

Much more! 

Class ends at 11:45 and lunch is served at noon!
