Why another course?

How people study today. How we do it.

📄 Hundreds of questions in a booklet, memorised by heart
🎯 Learn the logic, and the questions fall into place
🌙 Static pictures of lights that are hard to imagine
🚤 Simulations: watch the boats move and decide what to do
😬 Arriving at the test not knowing the oral questions
✅ Structured preparation for the oral questions and the buoy course
How it works

Go through the course like a buoy course

Watch the jet ski pass the buoys

  1. Buoy 1

    Learn on your phone, at your own pace

    Short lessons of a few minutes, on the way to work or on the beach. Stop whenever you like and continue exactly where you left off. Under the 2026 syllabus you may prepare for the theory exam on your own at home.

  2. Buoy 2

    Simulations instead of memorising

    Right of way, night lights, buoys at a harbour entrance: instead of memorising pictures, you watch it happen, make the call yourself and get animated feedback.

  3. Buoy 3

    Practice exams just like exam day

    A timed computer exam built on the Seamanship A topics, with a clear explanation for every answer. A readiness meter shows which topics to strengthen before you sit the exam.

  4. Buoy 4

    Ready for the water test too

    A simulation of the 4-buoy course, fast and slow heats, practice for the oral questions and the three knots you need, animated step by step.

  5. 🏁 Finish line

    Arrive at the exam calm and ready

    When the readiness meter fills up, you know it is time to book the exam. No guessing.

FAQ

Everything you wanted to know

What is the difference between Meshit 11 and Meshit 12?

Meshit 11 is the jet ski licence, from age 16. Meshit 12 is the licence for motor boats up to 150 hp, from age 17, and also covers water-ski towing for private use. A boat licence does not let you ride a jet ski, so if you want both, choose the combined course.

May I study the theory on my own, without a school?

Yes. Under the Israeli Shipping and Ports Authority syllabus in force from 2026, you may prepare for the theory exams by self-study. The practical test is done at a sailing school.

From what age can I get a jet ski licence?

The Meshit 11 (jet ski) licence is available from age 16. For Meshit 12 (boat) you need to be 17.

What does the theory exam look like?

The "Seamanship A" exam is a 60-minute computer exam at the Shipping Authority. Note: for jet skis the theory exam is valid for 180 days, so plan your practical test in time.

How much are the fees?

Fees are paid to the Shipping and Ports Authority and are not included in the course. At the time of writing the theory exam costs ₪215. Amounts are updated from time to time, so check gov.il before paying.

What does a jet ski licence allow?

The Meshit 11 licence lets you ride a jet ski in daylight only, from sunrise to sunset, in the areas set in the licence. The course also covers the rules for entering and leaving beaches and the areas you must not enter.

Does the course prepare me for the practical test?

Yes, the theory side of it: a simulation of the buoy course, preparation for the oral questions asked at the test, and the required knots. The riding itself you practise on the water with an instructor.

How long is the course open for me?

Course access is open for 6 months from purchase, on any device. That is plenty of time to learn, pass the theory exam and prepare for the test. Need more time? Access can be extended for an additional payment.
