This 2-day US Powerboating course is NASBLA and USCG approved. It includes a combination of on-the-water and classroom instruction. You will work alongside other students (or schedule a private course) to learn boat handling maneuvers, safety procedures, and boating laws. Whether you're learning from the beginning, a long time boater looking for certification, obtaining experience for a job opportunity, or trying to reduce your boat insurance costs, this is the course for you! Many vessel insurance companies also offer a discount for certificate holders.*

Students can earn most state boating certifications and licenses, such as the CA Boater Card or NJ Boating Safety Certificate. For more information about state certifications please contact us.
