Do I need a Boater Education Card if I have a windsurf board or sailboard (no cockpit, sit on board), or any paddle craft such as a canoe, kayak or raft?
Any person operating a windsurf board or sailboard (no cockpit, sit on board), or any paddle craft such as a canoe, kayak or raft that does not have a motor (electric or gas) or a sail does not have to have a Boater Education Card. However it is recommended that you get instruction view paddling and rafting safety videos and meet our required equipment requirements for your vessel.
