Boating Safety and Seamanship
Boating Safety and Seamanship
The Auxiliary’s most comprehensive course of instruction. The BS&S student earns a Coast Guard Boating Safety Certificate and card as well as a State of Maryland Card (required to operate vessels in Maryland if you were born after 1972.)
Instructors of this and all Auxiliary courses have earned training certifications. Each of the instructors teaches on topics of interest to them and the student benefits from that knowledge. Many students have told our flotilla members that attending the classes made a big difference to them personally.
Auxiliarists themselves are required to pass the course in order to achieve what is called Basic Qualification.
The BS&S class is generally taught just ahead of boating season in an effort to get new and prospective boat owners ready for Summer. Our class schedule will be posted here at the website when a new class for 2010 is scheduled.
