If you did your PB2 on a 11 metre boat, do you apply for under 10m or up to 20. Seems pb2 only coveres up to 10 but what if you did it on 11m ??

not sure if this helps or answers your query but remember its official boat length from bow sprint to stern excluding bathing platform.

When completing an RYA Level 2 PB
Course you can apply for an ICC
The Instructor can complete His part of the ICC application form
The form can be countersigned by the Principal of the School/Training Centre or 'Flag Officer' etc
If My memory serves me right
I don't have an application form to hand at the moment
Prior to January 2005, I think
The completion of an RYA PB2 Power boat course you could apply for a 24metre ICC!
Crazy really when you think about it because some Schools/Training Centres might use a 5 metre RIB or similar for the PB2 Course and then 'tick off' as it where, peeps to be able to hire a much bigger vessel
So the adjustement to that Scenario was a decent move
I might get shot down in flames by a more knowledgeable RYA member of the Forum here
But
IMHO-- if you check out the content/syllabus of the ICC application form
The depth of the navigation content that is required for the ICC is much more than is itemised or 'knowledge of' than the PB2 Course syllabus entails
However, I ramble on as usual
In answer
If you complete a PB2 in an over 10 metre vessel
It would seem you can apply for an ICC for 24 metres
I will check with the RYA for certain tomorrow rubberduck but that's how I see it this evening

Total 100% guesswork as I am not running a sea school.
BUT, many moons ago when I did my basic training I asked what would be most practical for me, working in the marine industry.
I ended up actually doing the ICC 24m course aboard a smaller, but twin engine 11/12m Sport Cruiser.
From memory, whilst the course was not overly taxing it did involve some real chart work and a fair bit more of the technical practical work that a basic Level II on a rib does.
I believe that the standard level II will give the under 11m ICC, but if you want bigger you should do the actual ICC 24m course on a suitable twin engine, larger boat.
I stand to be corrected, but that is and always has been my understanding.

You don't have to guess. All the requirements are in a neat table on the application forms posted above.
I like guessing! It's more fun!
OK so I took a peep
Alright, I took a look and the link was a bit more useful than guessing!
