Everything you need for a successful houseboat vacation

Mandatory Pre-Captain Training

Ready to take the helm? Before you launch your floating cottage getaway, all captains must complete our mandatory online training. This covers essential safety, navigation on the Trent-Severn Waterway, and how to operate your houseboat so you can set sail with complete confidence.

Navigating the Trent-Severn locks

A helpful look at what to expect when locking through. This is a bonus resource — it does not replace your mandatory training videos.
