Like it was said in an earlier post. Its a "rich man's tax" anything to make money these days. Seems to me that there are a lot of people with the "Orange on a toothpick" syndrome running the show. Their heads are so big that they can't think straight. These rules should only apply to the larger inland waters and not to inflatables and float tubes. It's Madness!!1

None of the above applies to float tubes......
If your boat is also under a certain Length this does not apply.
I think it is a good thing - yes it is a pain to get all the stuff sorted - but one just has to look at the cowboys with bigger boats to realise that it is worthwhile implementing this system - now at least if you see a guy being wreckless you can write his boat reg no and report him.

I think the new rules are great, its like these guys on the road who think they can drive there clapped out cars, and make it dangerous for others on the road, now at least we know who ever is on the water knows what they doing and has necessary equipment to help themselves, and keeps others safe on the water.
 
I'm from Carletonville and need to get my skippers done as well as all the other stuff regarding my boat,where can i get it done in Krugersdorp?

Everyone is moaning about the lisence issue, at the end of the day it is all about someone setting a safety standard regarding boating. Even if you don't have a boat yoursef, you WILL learn something.

Ek stem saam met jou.

Toe ek nog in die Kaap gebly het het ek gereeld Misverstand dam toe gegaan en meenigmal daar gesien hoe baie mense nie n idee het as dit kom by bootry nie. Ek dink die reels is n goeie ding en dit sal die mense meer bewus maak van veiligheid op die water. Jy sien die probleem gaan kom as iemand teen jou vas ry of jy ry iemand raak. Dadelik gaan die ou sonder die lisensie die verkeerde party wees en as iemand sterf in die ongeluk... Dit is soos om n ongeluk met n kar te maak en jy het nie n lisensie nie. En as jou boot verseker is, gaan hulle sekerlik nie uitbetaal nie, wel so dink ek, ek is nie heel seker van dit nie.

Ja dit is seker ook maar n geldmaak storie, maar dis soos n hengel lisensie, as jy dit nie het nie is jy verkeerd en klaar.

Ek hoop net hulle gaan die reels toepas anders gaan hierdie hele oeffening n mors van tyd en geld wees vir almal.

Open the below link.
I recently did my Skipper (R) and found it very helpful in locating an examiner near me.
