Help all! Right when you come to Spain you can go and change your UK car driving license for a Spanish one. No that doesnt even exist as every one can now use your UK euro license. Well for boats its different. I have held a UK ICC boat license for 10 years , I have owned a boat for 30 years , yet I cannot change my licence for a Spanish "Patron" boat license. It gets worse , I am now taking a Spanish exam course P.E.R. in spanish and I hope to pass in April, but even when I do pass I still cannot drive my boat as the license im taking now is only up to 8 meters , my last license was up to 25 meters and my boat is 15 meters. This exam is costing me 850 euro and once finished I have to retake a further yachtmaster spanish exam to enable me to drive my boat. At a furthe cost of 1250 euro. Does anyone know a way around this?
