Default Tres Martin High Performance Course reviews experiences

Looking for reviews experiences from people who have taken the course? I’m highly considering taking the course. He will be at the shootout in August and I’m already set to go that Wednesday so might just head down that Sunday.

the other question Is the lifeline jackets the go to or is there other options?

Thanks for your time.

Ive taken the course and a refresh after the purchase of a new boat. I recommend and I felt I “knew” about boats going into it. Leave the ego at the door and you’ll walk away pleased with the investment. And yes, Lifelines for the win

Thanks for the feedback. I’m sure I have a lot to learn. What was the class like were you in it with other people how did the on water part go you guys meet at the ramp ect? How long did it take. Did you get discount on your insurance after taking the class?

Default Tres course

To put this in perspective this is the ONLY course accepted by the 2 major boat insurance programs that require a hp boating course.

and to be honest that's not why I'm considering it. I'm not saying well i've taken the class lets go run the boat a 120 because it will do it either. I would like to do some poker runs and the boat does cruise well at 80 which is fast to me. But I feel like it s my responsibility as a power boat owner to have as much knowledge as i can to keep myself my family and friends safe while we are out on the water.

I've been in the boat when Brad teaches the course, just riding along as it was also a new boat delivery (33' Active Thunder). The course is very thorough and I feel as though it's well worth the investment.

I've taken it and it is well worth your resources in both money and time.
