Boating Safety Course offerings and information


ABS Cover

Flotilla 1-2 offers the 'About Boating Safely' course, formerly known as 'America's Boatings Course' or ABC. This is the course approved by NASBLA, the National Association of State Boating Law Administrators, to satisfy the required course by many states, including the New York State requirement for PWC operators. It is also a good introductory course in safety, navigation, rules of the road, trip planning, boating tips, and more for any and all boaters.

Our Flotilla conducts its courses at the Gander Mountain in the Salmon Run Mall in Watertown. Classes are held in "The Lodge" room within the store. Our schedule for 2008 is as follows:

The cost per person is $35. To register, call or stop in to the customer service desk at Gander Mountain. Note that although Gander Mountain and our Flotilla provide a mutual benefit through the offering of this course, that no endorsement is implied.

This course can also be done as a home-study; you only need to come to us when you are ready to take the exam. For information and to arrange for home-study, fill out the form below and one of our instructors will contact you.
