ukbiker Posted September 10, 2020 Share Posted September 10, 2020 I was thinking of buying a boat to do a spot of fishing out of Pattaya and I was wondering if any sort of permit or driving licence was required and if so how do I obtain one. Thanks in advance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stese Posted September 10, 2020 Share Posted September 10, 2020 (edited) I'm looking into this too. I have a small 4meter rib with a 25hp on the back. From what i have found on the web you would need a Helmsman Level 2. https://thethaiger.com/issues-answers/asked/speedboat-drivers-license This thread also, took me a while to re find it But the info could be out of date by now. If anyone has upto date info that would be great Edited September 10, 2020 by Stese Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mark5335 Posted September 10, 2020 Share Posted September 10, 2020 I looked into tis a couple of years ago and found that Ocean Marina Yacht Club in Jomtien run courses resulting in getting a boat licence. For your purpose it seems their 2 day course would suffice. https://www.sailingschoolthailand.com/power-boat-courses/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
