BOAT MASSACHUSETTS COURSES 2009

   

  The following schedule shows when and where BOAT MASSACHUSETTS courses will be offered. BOAT MASSACHUSETTS is state and nationally approved, concentrating on the equipment and operating guidelines needed to enjoy boating in a safe and responsible way. All graduates in the 12 through 15 year-old age group will be issued a Safety Certificate allowing them to operate a motorboat without adult supervision, as required by state law. The same is true for 16 and 17 year old youth who wish to operate a personal watercraft (jet ski, wave runner, etc.)    
  The course runs 10-12 hours in length. The normal format is 5-6 two hours classes, though this may vary. All classes are free of charge. Classes are for adults and youth 12 years of age and older. Family participation is encouraged and has proven to be very rewarding.    
  If you give us your mailing address, we will send you a flyer notifying you of BOATING BASICS courses in your area

UNLESS NOTED OTHERWISE, COURSE REGISTRATION WILL BE THROUGH THE BOAT AND RV SAFETY BUREAU AND MUST BE DONE BY PHONE.  To register, call: (508) 759-0002
