A G Licensing

23/04/2026

After almost 20 years in the boat licensing business, Melinda and I have made the tough decision to cease trading in this industry at the end of June.
We are facing rising costs and a stupid pricing war from other trainers. We have felt the effect of this in our customer numbers, and we are not joining their race to the bottom of the barrel.
If they want to work for nothing, so be it, but we won't be. Running boats and jetski's and vehicles isn't cheap, and don't get me started on insurance costs.
It's time to take back our weekends as well and live a little.
Since July 2026 we have met about 8,000 people who we have helped with their boat licence journey and 99.999 percent of them have been awesome people. We thank all of you.
We also need to thank our kids for helping out so much and making this such a success. Truly, we couldn't have done this without your sacrifice.
Sam, Dan, Amy, Angus, Ben, Josh and Isaac. Thanks guys.
We will continue to run our driving school in Warwick and Stanthorpe, just no more boats and jetskis.
If you want to get a boat licence before the end of June, you really do need to act now - so go to
www.aglicensing.com.au and get it done.
Come June, we will shut the portal down and cease taking any more bookings because I want to finish up before the end of the financial year. After then, the boat goes on the market too.

What’s the old saying Andy? Red sky at night….Sailors delight. Red sky at morning sailor take warning. As the sunrise sky was really only a bit orange, we’ll still be heading out for a little bit of training this morning. We started exams, early so there’s only light rain about at the moment. Still a lovely out there! 🛥️ Be safe if you’re out on the water and wear your life jackets! 😊

We love Valentine’s Day ❤️ and we love being a Boat Training Organisation/Provider under the Boatsafe (QT and MSQ) umbrella ☂️……. And we definitely need one to day.
A little bit of rain on your exam and practical training day to finish of your course, means you’re keeping those sunny 🌞 days for your recreational boating. 😁
Please call or text 0414182182 if you want info on how to get your boat/pwc licence. 😊or check out our website www.aglicensing.com

Easter weekend is fast approaching (4-7 April) We still have spaces available before then.
As always QT and MSQ dictates maximum student numbers for training days.
Hope to hear from you soon! 🛥️
Your life hack…… is wear your lifejacket when your on the water!

We do have a couple of courses with a few spaces available before New Year on 29/12/25 and 30/12/25.
So if you’re trying to get your boat/pwc licence in before the New Year, by all means feel free to complete the online learning component on our website and drop me a text on 0414 182 182 so I can advise of any availability. (Completing the online learning is a prerequisite to booking the exam and training day)

Started boat licences early today to beat the storms.

Just made it out of the water before the fireworks fell out of the sky. 😅

Stay safe guys and remember, doesn’t matter what colours or shapes or warnings are on the bom radar or website. Looking out the window ( particularly in a western direction) is always a good warning of an approaching storm. What I like to call “caveman” weather forecasts.
