Fellow Boaters,
Many of the USCG boarding’s is for your safety. Annually, @ 800 boaters across the nation die on the water due to accidents and drowning.
Recreational Boating Safety (RBS) is a high priority for the USCG for purpose of educating boaters and enforcing federal laws on our waters.
The USCG Auxiliary offers FREE boat inspections and it is an excellent time for "one on one" boater exchange of information regarding Federal and State requirements as well as local boating safety classes available.
A majority of the 800 deaths include boaters that have a) drowned, b) have never attended a boating safety course, c) were swimmers (that is knew how to swim).
The link below is your pass to a FREE Vessel Safety Check (VSC). The USCG Auxiliary will even come to you. Please ask them about their Boating Classes in your area.
As a boater of forty plus years and a Member of the USCG Auxiliary I can tell you that I personally have inspected hundreds of boats and a majority fail the most basic safety and Federal requirements. After the FREE VSC, the boater is more knowledgeable about the requirements and Recreational Boating Safety (RBS).

Please take a moment to visit the site and get your boat inspected. Feel free to ask me any questions about the program.
Enjoy your summer and safe boating!
