PCC Member Review

PCC Member Review

Class 2 Gold Member: Vladimir Milovic

Vlad joins the Pleasure Cruising Club after doing extensive research either buying a boat or sharing a boat. Being time poor professional, Vlad and his family enjoys the step on and off service and has limited boating days to enjoy. Having to maintain a boat with the hidden costs was not a option.  What Vlad was concerned about was safety. In Victoria there is no mandatory boat training and the club provides both boat licensing and “one on one”  Sports Cruise on going training for members. The club has over 10,000 training hours and have been certified by Yachting Victoria. Vlad completed his training and is confident to enjoy boating in the bay with the family.
