Skills Day
The WWA holds a Skills Day each year in June to help new members enhance their
jetboating safety and operational skills. Training topics generally include safety equipment,
pre-operational maintenance, launching and loading in moving water, the basics of river channels and
rapids, anchoring in moving water, overnight anchoring in fluctuating water levels, and other
subjects of interest. The site for this event is not fixed and varies from year to year, based
on training needs and water conditions.
Skills Day presents both new and not-so-new jetboaters with an opportunity to
participate in hands-on training, in a low pressure, on-the-water setting. The event also
provides a forum in which experienced boaters can share their knowledge, tips, and tricks with an
eager and interested audience.
