do you need a license to take a dive boat into uk sea to scuba dive?
Your question is a little confusing the way it’s worded.
If you meant to ask if you need to have a license to operate your own personal boat in UK off shore waters, then the answer is no, not off the coast and if you’re not charging money. If you plan on heading down a river or canal and out to sea then the answer is yes. You’ll need that personal operators card for inland waterways for personal use. If you’re charging money you’ll need to be licensed as a commercial operator.
If you’re asking about a commercial operation where you are making money taking people to a dive site, you betcha you’ll need a license. You and your vessel will also undergo regular inspections for safety and competency. You or one of your crew should also be a certified diver and have all the required emergency gear aboard for either a vessel issue or a dive related one.
If you’re asking about needing a scuba certification to go diving, yes you need to take and pass a course and then follow the restrictions placed on you by the level of course(s) you have completed. It’s not exactly “the law” and you won’t be prosecuted fro not taking a course, borrowing someone’s equipment ( likely stealing since no diver will lend his equipment to someone that has no certification) but having that certification will teach you enough to keep you alive. Don’t take the course and it may be your last time seeing the surface.
