  1. No Age Limit.

    Use the experience as EXPERIENCE, though!

    The very best of luck to you. I really hope you enjoy the boat and it all leads to a long-lasting and informed interest in boats.

    Enjoy

    (Don't fall in)

  2. its common sense.if you can handle the boat then go for it but first take professional day skippers course from a tech college. this isn,t mandatory but well advised, it will help you in navigation, engine problems, safety in the water etc.

    if you are in doubt ask the Thames River Authority.

  3. check with the port authority .!!!!!

  4. you are old enough but take an RYA course , approx £200 , many launch sites around our way (north wales) are now insistant that you produce this document before they will allow you to launch .  good luck
