Welcome to the
safe boating Guide.
It has been written to promote safe and
responsible boating practices among Canada’s pleasure craft users. If you remember
one thing found between these covers, it should be to
always
wear your lifejacket
when on the water. It could save your life!
While this guide does offer a basic overview of boating safety, it should not be your
only source of information. No matter your age or experience, you should take a
boating safety course. Please visit
www.boatingsafety.gc.ca
or contact us for a
complete list of Transport Canada accredited course providers. You will find contact
information for Transport Canada and other organizations at the end of this guide.
This is not a study guide for the Pleasure Craft Operator Card test.
To buy a
training manual for the test, contact an accredited course provider.
