Course prerequisites

Must be comfortable in the ocean, we will be drifting in 500ft of water in the gulf stream for 3 hours.
Seas will be between flat calm and 4ft seas, if I believe the seas will be 5ft or more I will cancel the ocean session. If you are prone to seasickness even after taking medication I would not recommend this course.
Must be 16 years or older.
Must have a reasonable amount of fitness, being able to easily jog for 20 minutes, course is 11 hours a day much of it active and in the water.
My boat has no ladder but a transom a few inches above the water. Must be able to easily pull yourself up in the deepend of the pool with out fins or using the ladder in the deep-end. This give you an idea of what is required to board my boat.
