Become "Boat Smart"
You learned the "Rules of the Road" before you sat behind the wheel of a car - and you should do the same before taking the helm. Learning the basics of boat operation and safety is best done before your first trip to the marina or launch ramp. In fact, a number of states require powerboat operators to take a boating education course and carry a license or certificate proving successful course completion any time they're under way.
