Wow...nice work Tres!!! Just a question...if he's saving $2,000 a year on his insurance and it takes him 2 years to recover the cost of taking your course--Does that mean your course is $4,000? Not trying to invoke any negatives but seems a little steep??? Clearly worth the time and money for some!!

I will take the course one day when I get enough cash though. I have heard nothing but good things about it.

He will be ahead shortly after the first year.
I did some sole searching before I went and took course. Did not take me long to realize that one accident was going to cost me WAY more then what the course cost. Now when I ride in friends boats I tell them what they are doing wrong.

While the insurance saving is a direct benefit this monetary measurement pales in comparison to the skills learned and the value divided by hours, days, years of proper, safe, enjoyable boating.
We have found and can demonstrate years of experience really means nothing and when vetted is better described as years of exposure to boating rather than years of experience. Each individual develops their own sense of learned objectives based upon their prior boating experiences. In other words the 98% of proper knowledge I have is all good but the remaining 2% is what I must consider to be my concentration area.
A lifelong learner who challenges the experts and commits to not knowing everything but to seek out knowledge will live longer and travel farther.
