Suddenly in Charge - Maraetai
A skills and confidence-boosting workshop for women boaties.
What would you do if you were suddenly in charge on the water?
Suddenly in Charge is a short, hands-on workshop designed to help everyday women build confidence, practical safety skills, and preparedness for unexpected situations on the water.
Hosted by our own local Coastguard volunteers, this engaging and supportive session is ideal for women who are often on board but aren't usually at the helm.
This workshop is for you if:
• You're often on the boat while someone else does the driving
• You'd like to know what to do if things go wrong on the water
• You want to feel calmer, safer, and more capable when boating
• You enjoy learning in a fun, practical, and interactive environment
You'll gain:
✓ Essential boating and safety know-how
✓ Practical guidance for emergency situations
✓ Confidence to step up if you're suddenly in charge
✓ Connections with fellow local boaties
✓ A chance to share stories, questions, and experiences
