There are two versions of our boating course taught by individual squadrons. The Boat Smart course is an 8-hour course and covers safety & boat handling topics along with on-the-water federal and state regulations. The Squadron Boating Course is a 12-hour course and includes all the Boat Smart topics plus additional topics of charts, compasses, piloting and position determination on the water. The Squadron Boating Course also provides material on digital charts along with GPS waypoint and route navigation.

Each Squadron holds at least one class per year and most hold more than one. Courses typically are taught in the Spring (usually in FEB or MARCH), in the Summer (usually July or August), or in the Fall (usually SEPT or OCT). As the classes are scheduled you can find them here or by calling the numbers above.
