The I.C.C. is, broadly speaking, a permit for UK residents, to use UK flagged vessels in foreign waters without having the required boating qualification for that country, which may be compulsory for it's residents. Please check that the country visited accepts this for the activity being undertaken. To obtain an I.C.C., an application form must be completed and proof of competence supplied. There are two possible methods to achieve this:
- For the inexperienced, the simplest method of achieving an I.C.C. for powerboats up to 10m, in coastal waters, is to successfully undertake an RYA Powerboat Level Two Course which entitles application for an I.C.C. without further testing.
- An I.C.C. test can be undertaken, which includes assessment of Collision Regulations, chartwork knowledge and practical boat handling skills.

This requires completion of a test paper after studied knowledge of the RYA European Waterways Regulations book, available from Quay Marine Training.
As a recognised RYA Training Centre for the RYA Powerboat Scheme and RYA (VHF) SRC Training, we offer quality courses as standard.
"By taking your course at an RYA Recognised Training Centre you can expect to be taught by an experienced, qualified instructor on seaworthy boats with a maximum of six trainees (depending on the level of course). Courses can be taken either onboard a centre’s boat or your own boat."
