Program Description

Event Details

BOAT AMERICA is the recreational boating safety course, presented by the U.S. CoastGuard Auxiliary, and taught by Certified Instructors. During the 8-hour course, you will become familiar with boat handling, navigation rules, common problems, and safe boating practices. Upon completion of the course and passing the multiple choice questions, you will receive a Boat America Certificate and a laminated, wallet-sized, Boat America Card. This course satisfies the requirements for Federal and New York State Parks and Recreation for personal watercraft (Jet Ski) and recreational boating operators. Participants must be at least 10 years old to attend this class. Registration requires a $50 fee, which includes the BOAT AMERICA Study Guide that will be mailed to you before the class.
