Safe Haven Training

 

Welcome!

 

Safe Haven Training is an RYA RTC (Royal Yachting Association Recognised Training Center). It provides training courses;

 

  • RYA Powerboat 1 and 2 course
  • Powerboat mile builders and  Powerboat MOB days
  • VHF Marine Radio/ SRC (Short Range Certificate) day course with exam (most chosen) at the end or RYA SRC online course with exam on appointment
  • RYA First Aid
  • RYA CEVNI online exam
  • RYA Diesel engine
  • 12 volt boat electric course
  • Stop the Bleeding safe a life course (according to the method of VU Medical Center), at request only (it is standerd part of the RYA First Aid course).
  • Several Dutch only courses (Klein Vaarbewijs 1 & 2, Marcom B practical exam training), only visible in the Dutch version of this website

 

Also take a look at the  facebook page, you will find regular updates and useful information for previous students.

 

The RYA (Royal Yachting Association) is the British national body for water-sports training and strives for a high professional standard in the RYA courses. Safe Haven Training undergoes yearly inspections by an RYA inspector which safeguards that material, procedures and courses complies with the high RYA standards. It is the most international recognised institute for water sport training.

 

For Dutch only courses we use teaching material and online training facilities of Vaarbewijsopleidingen.

 

Safe Haven Training uses professional equipment for all courses provided. Safe Haven Training strives for the best possible equipment, not to comply with just the minimum required. Safety & Quality are first, no concessions are made and these matters. We use a lot of equipment where possible   (Marine VHF, EPIRB, SART, PLB, AIS MOB, GMDSS portofoons,  antennas, stretchers, smoke escape masks, First Aid equipment, medical oxygen equipment, advanced CPR mannequins, MOB mannequin etc), this to provide an experience which is as close to reality. You learn and remember  better seeing and touching and where possible using the equipment.

 

This is not the most commercial website in the Netherlands, we know. Preference has been given to as clear as possible, honest and complete information.  The pictures (self made or by students) of the location, boat, materials etc. is as it is. No fancy pictures of things that are not there, no pictures of materials which we do not have, no views which do not exist in reality. No pictures of boating areas where you will not come.   Also we do not mention unrealistic required selfstudy hours before a course, to push our sales. Generally said what you see is what you get and often more materials are available than visible in the pictures.

 

Powerboat courses; for the courses a 7 meter XS RIB with a 200 HP Mercury outboard engine is used. The boat is category B build (up to force 8 with 4 meter high waves) and is equipped with a wide range of safety equipment that supersedes the Dutch and RYA requirements.

 

For the VHF Marine radio courses 12 ICOM training radios are used. In 1 day you can pass the assessment and can gain certification which is also recognised by the Dutch authorities.

safety instructions for all students!!
 – No running at all times (we are at a working harbour, we are never in a hurry,be carefull)
 – We are locted at a working harbour, look out and stay clear from dangers like crane, forklift, trailer etc, be safe!
 – Do not park your car at the yard of the harbour or infront af the gate into the harbour.

 – Sitting on chairs with wheels, only sit in the middle not on the edges, you could fall!
 – For Diesel course, wear safety shoes with steal noses
 – For Diesel course, do not open more then 2 drawers of the toolboxes at the same time, very heavy they could fall over.
 – For Diesel course Do not lift engines higher then 40 centimeters
 – Powerboat in case of a course in the power boat; always wear the life jacket, hold on to a metal frame with at least 1 hand, bend the knees (shock absorbing) waves  and during higher speed manoeuvres, warn other before tuning and speed changes
 – Powerboat follow the clothing advice to prevent hypothermia or sunburn
 – First Aid course, there are pictures, videos and facts that could be disturbing for some

ESG (Environmental Social Governance)

Generally spoken we try to do more good than harm. We try to reduce our CO2 footprint, calculate our CO2 and one compensate this by buying trees. We support the KNRM Huizen with a structural financial donation. Are you? They really need all the help they can get!  More ESG details are visible at the ESG page on the website .

 

The location in Huizen is Corona proof

  • A Swiss  IQ air purifier with amongst others an HyperHEPA 12/13 filter of hospital quality which can even remove corona aerosols if present (in fact the air in the classroom is now cleaner than the air outside !)
  • Each students has personal equipment for the course (for example VHF training , personal CPR mannequin, First Aid bandages etc.)

 

Terms and Conditions (without small print), course content and realistic required preparation times for students is provided on this website.

Payment, the booking system includes a payment system. We do not accept creditcards due to the high costs. We included a banktransfer possibility for foreign clients, however payment must be executed/ done directly on the booking date. Any payment later and the booking will be rejected. Bad experience in the past led to this situation (setting payment later than the course date and canceling payment after the course).

Take a look at the site and you are welcome to book a training course!

Dank voor de leuke en interessante praktijk training voor Marcom-B. Ik heb ervaren dat Roel je perfect voorbereid voor het examen en meer. Ik heb de praktijk cursus Marcom-B en later het examen bij Safe Haven gedaan. Roel bereid je voor op het examen, maar probeert je ook het grotere plaatje te schetsen en niet alleen een trucje te laten doen. De bediening van de diverse apparatuur komt uitgebreid aan bod en na de training ben je niet alleen klaar voor het examen, maar ook daadwerkelijk om alle apparatuur te gebruiken op de juiste wijze op het moment dat het ertoe doet. Ik kom snel terug voor meer!

Mijn motivatie om de RYA Diesel Engine (+) cursus te volgen was om meer begrip te krijgen voor mijn diesel motor. We varen met ons kajuit jachtje van 8 meter jaarlijks zo'n 6-8 weken door Nederland België Frankrijk en Duitsland.De cursus voldeed volledig aan mijn wensen. Lesmateriaal werd tevoren toegezonden en is uitstekend en werd goed toegelicht in de training. De trainingsruimte is ruim en uitstekend geoutilleerd. Hands-on ervaring was hartstikke instructief. Roel heeft zijn zaakjes perfect in orde. Heel goed voorbereid. Didactische benadering was perfect. Cursus geld is prima besteed zo.

Attended the RYA SRC course here. Before the class, Roel was really helpful and lightning quick when responding to all of my questions and requests. The preparation guidance was great, and I attribute his insistence that we come prepared to (almost) acing the exam! During the class, he had a very practical approach and was both direct and kind with his feedback, since we all made mistakes when practicing. We drove over from Germany and the facility in Huizen was very easy to get to.

I did two courses at Safe Haven Training. The diesel engine course and the 12Volt course. Both are very practical and I learned a lot. I now have the confidence to understand my diesel engine and electrical system and perform maintenance on them. Roel is very structered and clear in his courses. I recommend it to anyone who has a boat!

Joined for Diesel+ course and very satisfied with this workshop! Useful literature came beforehand, so there is a possibility to come prepared (which I haven't utilized fully, but that was not a problem at the actual day).There was a lot of practice - Roel prepared nice materials for that (engines, tools, etc). Now I feel more optimistic about my ability at least to do something at sea if something happened with the engine and(or) minimize the chance for such an event to occur.Highly recommend the course!I feel so enthusiastic that now consider to come back to the electro course as well.

Over zes weken ontvang ik mijn diploma voor de short range course, en mag ik mijn zeevaart marifoon bedienen. Joeppieie!

Roel is a fantastic RYA Instructor providing what I can describe as the best first aid course I have done in my 21 years as an RYA instructor myself and having to renew every 3 years to keep my own instructing certificates valid.I highly recommend Safe Haven Training (& Roel) in the Netherlands for your RYA training!

Vandaag praktijk examen Marcom B gehaald! Je krijgt alle veiligheidveiligheidsmiddelen zoals een PLB, EPRIB en SART ter beschikking als onderdeel van het examen en je moet op basis van een situatie direct een noodbericht via een DSC marifoon verzenden. Fijn om deze kennis te hebben en bij voorkeur nooit te hoeven gebruiken. Goede faciliteiten en professionele begeleiding qua video’s en voorbereiding.

Gisteren de RYA Short Range Certificate (SRC) cursus gedaan. Dat was een erg goede ervaring. Voor aanvang en na afronding van de cursus nuttig leer- en oefenmateriaal ontvangen. De dag zelf was een interessante combi van theorie en praktijk. Roel is een enthousiaste en ervaren instructeur. Ook als je al een basiscertificaat marifonie hebt (zoals ik) maar enigszins onzeker bent in het gebruik van je marifoon een zeer welkome aanvulling. Aanrader dus en geld meer dan waard!

I did both the first aid and the Diesel course. Both really, really good. Roel is a great instructor and super experienced in actual first aid situations. Lots of practical advice and good practice on CPR. The diesel course is just as practical. Lots of actual work on diesel engines taking things apart and putting them back together, and really clear explanation of all the different systems that make up the diesel engine. Can really recommend both!

Ich besuchte an einem Wochenende den RYA First Aid Kurs und den RYA Diesel Engine Kurs. Zusammenfassend kann ich festhalten, dass ich mich nicht erinnere, schon mal so viel an zwei Tagen gelernt zu haben. Wirklich großartige Wissensvermittlung in familiärer Atmosphäre. Eine absolute Top-Adresse für diese Schulungen! Roel ist ein strukturiert arbeitender und unterhaltsamer Instruktor mit sehr viel Erfahrung und einem 100%ig praktischem Ansatz. Natürlich mit theoretischem Lernmaterial, aber viel selber ausprobieren und Zeit zum Fehler machen und diese zu diskutieren. Man merkt Roel seine Leidenschaft für die Wissensvermittlung an, voller Energie und dem Fokus Menschen besser zu machen, zu sensibilisieren, sich selbst zu reflektieren... Sehr, sehr, sehr gut investiertes Geld! Wer wirklich was lernen möchte, ist hier genau richtig! Vielen Dank Roel! Es hat sehr viel Spaß gemacht bei Dir zu lernen! Und die Umgebung sowie der Schulungsort sind auch eine Reise wert... Schwer vorstellbar dass man die Kurse noch besser machen kann...

I had a great experience of a diesel engine training. Highly highly recommended. If you want to do the recognized and certified RYA course on diesel engines this is the place to learn. Lots of hands on time, 4 different types of engines to learn from.Als je een cursus diesel motor onderhoud van RYA wil doen dan is deze de beste. Geweldige ervaring. Heel leerzaam. Een betere trainer vind je niet.

Had a great experience with Roel during my SRC certificate course. I highly recommend the school since it was hands on experience and that's something I really like. I went out of that class and I am able to use my Vhf even under stressful situations. That's going to keep me alive if something happens out there. I would definitely recommend the school and can't wait to also do the diesel course.

The RYA SRC course was excellent - I chose the online self-study option and was provided with abundant information on every subject, along with a textbook, additional videos, kahoot questions, and a practice test! Most of these resources were personally curated by Roel and were more than enough to fully prepare me for the exam, and, most importantly - for practical operation of a VHF radio in real life. The quality of the exam also left me very impressed - there was a theoretical part, but also a practical part during which I got the chance to operate a VHF radio, and Roel took the time to perform several distress/urgency/safety demonstrations to further my understanding of the processes.Any and all of my questions after the exam were answered excellently and in a very friendly manner; altogether I have no complaints and am very happy with my experience :)I can recommend Safe Haven Training to anyone looking to get their marine qualifications - not only is the examination of very high quality, but the personal experience is also unmatched 🙂

Ik heb genoten van deze leerzame en intensieve RYA-training voor het bedienen van een marifoon. De combinatie van zelfstudie (boek, kahoots en aanvullende informatie) en de trainingsdag (theorie en praktijk) is perfect. Veel uitleg over de belangrijkste elementen en veel oefenen met de marifoon. Diverse procedures hebben we doorgenomen en geoefend. De druk werd flink opgevoerd, daar geniet ik van.Tussendoor was er voldoende rust voor wat drinken, eten en een wandeling. Het examen was ook leuk om te doen. Dank Roel voor het delen van jouw kennis en ervaring! Echt een aanrader.Christian Slot

Amazing experience in a lot more ways than one. Roel is the perfect instructor to learn from: studious, tough and fair. Safety is no joke.If you ever wanted to learn how to (safely) operate a power boat, or if you wanted to upgrade your self-taught skills don't miss this class.You will be taught, helped, instructed, and, in the end, tested in various situation where you have a chance to build your hands-on experience and confidence. No better way to learn!It's unbelievable how much we covered in two full days, but I must say that the safe passage through the locks in Amsterdam was the highlight! Do this course!

SafeHaven does a very good job! The preparation material is excellent. Roel Carels has a very compact method to guide you to the exam-day. If you invest the 20 plus hours in learning, you will pass the exam. The on-location-teaching is very professional and on the point. The teaching and exam day is very intense, but at the end of the day everybody knows what he/she is doing. Roel Carels is a teacher by heart. My son and I came from Germany to do the rya src here and i recommend it highly. Thanks Roel. Cheers from Dirk and Philippe.

Geweldige training Marifonie (SRC) die ik gisteren succesvol heb afgerond via de methode van Roel. Voor de training had ik alleen eens een Marifoon gezien, na de training kan ik vol vertrouwen onder stress een boodschap afluisteren en sturen. Veel geleerd, Roel weet goed de situatie van stress over te brengen en heeft veel praktijkvoorbeelden. Daarnaast was het erg leuk om te doen!

Roel is very capable in learning you the core content, helping with digesting a lot of information and to be ready for your exam. He has helped me prepping with several exams and I succeeded all in once. He never forgets to bring in some fun and switches to serious content when the topic requires it. A true professional which is a pleasure to work with! Highly recommended!

Afgelopen zondag opleiding Marifonie gedaan een aanrader. Naast de theorie ook parktijk voorbeelden die worden uitgewerkt met gebruik van de marifoon waar het nou juist allemaal om gaat.Dus niet alleen in het boek maar ook praktische toepassing, leren hoe een marifoon werkt. Roel geeft duidelijk les en heeft een schat aan ervaring vanuit de parktijk.Top zeker een aanrader!

Really great day at Safehaven for the SRC training. Roel was able to make the day to fly by with the right balance of practical exercise and theory.

I participated in the one-day course for the RYA-SRC. Roel is a dedicated trainer with years of experience. We received extensive preparation materials ahead of time, which were very useful. The course was educational and fun, highly recommended for anyone looking to learn how to use a VHF radio in emergency situations, and who wants to obtain a short range certificate. Thanks for the fun Saturday!

Me an my wife had a day of SRC training with Safehaven and I must say Roel (the owner and instructor) exceeded all expectations. The course was very practical and I got significantly more confidence in using the VHF Equipment. All the materials were very well prepared and assembled - thumbs up. The group was also small (6 people) so enough attention was paid to everyone. Full recommendation from my side!

Training for an emergency is a serious matter, but Roel manages to make it incredibly rewarding, whilst actually preparing you super well for a real life scenario.If you want to get a license, go anywhere, if you want fantastic training that can save lives, go to Roel!

Dieselmotor workshop gedaan. Serieus goede training. . De verschillende motoren en alle losse onderdelen geven letterlijk directe hands-on ervaring. Dit met een goede theoretische achtergrond. Fijne instructiestijl die uitnodigt om snel inzicht te krijgen. Had over de jaren behoorlijke scholing gehad over motoren, maar ik heb nog zoveel kunnen leren. Heel fijn. Super

Hartstikke goed, dit beveel ik aan! Ik heb 2 RYA trainingen bij SafeHaven gedaan. Roel heeft goed gestructureerde presentaties en is een echte professional. Zijn enthousiasme houdt iedereen bij de les en zorgt voor een blijvende leerervaring. Dank Roel!
