In anticipation of a summer season of boating ahead, the United States Power Squadrons will teach a one-day recreational boating safety course at the Boothbay Region YMCA on Saturday, April 27.
This is an 8-hour course that covers Maine boating laws, boat handling, and safety equipment. This is a National Association of State Boating Law Administrators-certified course with issuance of an operator’s license upon passing the course exam. Completing this course will increase one’s confidence and skills as a boater, and most boat insurance companies offer premium discounts for completion.
To insure classroom space and materials, preregistration for this popular course is required by Thursday, April 11. The cost is $70 per individual, or $95 for couples sharing materials.
To register, contact John McMullen, squadron education officer, at postms@comcast.net or 433-7848.
