The captain becomes incapacitated or falls overboard; you purchase a new boat and step aboard for the first time. You are Suddenly In Command.
This 2-hour boating safety primer is designed for those not generally at the helm, and will help you to “be prepared” with the basics in case of an emergency.
You will learn about your vessel, including nomenclature and operating principles including starting the engine, and operating the radio. Also included are descriptions of what causes boating mishaps and how to minimize them, basic boat handling and what equipment should be on board.
