Direct Assessment. Experienced powerboaters are able to take an ICC assessment of competence at the Sail Thonon RYA recognised training centre. The ICC certificate can be used to validate the power category, limited to vessels up to 10m LOA, on Coastal Waters. Details below. I suggest that the CEVNI is also completed for the ICC to be valid for Inland waters, although local rules for Lake Geneva / Lac Leman do not require the CEVNI. It is possible for the assessment to be conducted over half a day, but time is allowed for some coaching input in order to refresh experienced powerboaters in areas they may fall below the standard required for the ICC. Look through the list below to see the topics you will be assessed on. Many people choose to attend the 2 day RYA Level 2 course rather than just doing the 1 day Direct assessment. Using the course as a refresher and to ensure they are familiar with all the aspects required to pass the ICC Direct Assesment. The Powerboat Assessment will cover: SKILLS 1. Preparation, Give safety briefing including use of safety equipment Obtained and assessed appropriate weather forecast Pre-start engine checks Use kill cord Start engine Check cooling Knows fuel range 2. Depart from pontoon Understand use of springs to depart from lee wall or pontoon Communicate effectively with crew Position fenders correctly 3. 360˚ turn in confined space 4. Mooring to a buoy and anchoring Communicate effectively with crew Anchoring (deploy and set anchor, check holding, recover and stow anchor) Mooring buoy (prepare warp, choose correct angle and control speed on approach, secure boat effectively to mooring buoy, depart from mooring safely) 5. Man overboard Observe MOB or instruct crew to do so Demonstrate correct direction and speed of approach Make suitable contact with MOB 6. Planing Speed Manoeuvres Choose suitable area Show awareness of other water users Warn crew before each manoeuvre Look round before S and U turns Control speed on U turns 7. Coming alongside windward pontoon Communicate effectively with crew Show awareness of other water users Prepared warps / fenders Choose correct angle of approach Control speed of approach Stop boat in place required and secure to pontoon Stop engine REGULATIONS Knows responsibility for keeping a proper lookout Can determine a ‘safe speed’ Can recognise a potential collision situation Can identify ‘give way’ vessel in a collision situation Knows action to take as ‘give way’ and ‘stand on’ vessel Knows responsibilities of small vessel in narrow channel Can recognise manoeuvring signals (1, 2, 3 & 5 blasts) Can make and recognise visual distress signals SAFETY 1.
