Boat Smart is a course for all boaters (the personal watercraft
operator; the hunter or fisherman operating an outboard utility
boat; the skipper of a family cruiser; the sailing enthusiast). All
boaters must follow the same nautical rules, regulations, and
courtesies of the sea. All are subject to the same forces of nature
while boating.
As boating is often a family activity, the course is of value to all
members of a boating family. USPS encourages families to
attend as groups.
Qualified, enthusiastic, and experienced USPS instructors provide instruction as a civic
service. There is never a charge for instruction; the only costs are those for materials, plus
overhead costs such as classroom rental, shipping and handling, sales tax, etc.
The course meets the educational standards of the National Association of State Boating Law
Administrators and features a proctored examination as required by many states and insurance
companies.
