America’s Boating Club has enhanced Boat Live 365, its year-round campaign to educate boaters about safety.
The initiative includes such free resources (available online) as brochures, graphics, lesson planning slides and materials from the Coast Guard and National Weather Service.
“Brushing up on basic skills and expanding the breadth of your knowledge sets the stage for a great boating season,” Craig Fraser, chief commander of America’s Boating Club, said in a statement. “Our goal with Boat Live 365 has always been to create a movement in the recreational boating world, spurring people to think every day about safer boating practices. Working with our partners and spreading the word to local communities, we can promote a safe-boating culture 365 days a year.”
America’s Boating Club, the former U.S. Power Squadrons, collaborates with industry partners to promote safety to new and experienced boaters, alike. Educational topics include alcohol and drug use, carbon monoxide, life jackets, cold water immersion, propeller strikes and the importance of proper navigation.
