My child is ten-years-old and wants to operate the family boat. Does he need a Boating Certificate?
Yes, he needs the Safe Boating Certificate to operate the vessel. He must take a boating course in order to obtain the boating certificate. By law, any person under the age of 16 may operate a vessel without being certified, other than a PWC, if under the direct supervision of a person 18 or older, who has had their Safe Boating Certificate (SBC) or Certificate of Personal Watercraft Operation (CPWO) for at least two years.
