COURSE DESCRIPTION

Course Duration:  3 two-hour weekly sessions.

This Canadian Coast Guard accredited course is designed for you and your family to obtain a Pleasure Craft Operator Card (PCOC), the proof of competency required under government regulation.  It is also recognized by the National Association of State Boating Law Administrators (USA).  This operator card is valid for life.

Boat Pro is a highly acclaimed safety related course held in three sessions, over consecutive weeks.  Boat Pro is suitable for fishermen, cottagers, and Personal Watercraft boaters.  This course provides an excellent introduction to water safety for all members of the family.  We encourage youth from age twelve and over to participate and obtain their PCOC.  Everyone who operates a pleasure craft fitted with a motor and used for recreational purposes will require a PCOC after September 15, 2009. Until that time, you need a PCOC right now if your craft is under 4 metres in length, or if you were born after April 1, 1983.
