Presenting boating safety classes is a traditional civic service of the United States Power Squadrons. Since 1914, local squadrons have presented these classes to anyone who wished to attend. Attendees to date number more than three million. Learning boat safety is important as the knowledge you gain will assist you in being a safer boater and thus your enjoyment of the sport.
The class includes sections on boat terms and types; marine radiotelephone (VHF); aids to navigation; boat handling; government regulations pertaining to safety equipment, lights, et cetera; navigation rules; adverse conditions and emergencies; trailering; personal watercraft (PWC) and Florida laws and regulations.
