Did you know that any pleasure craft
powered by 10 horse power or more
needs a licence?
The license number needs to be displayed clearly
on both sides of the bow.
It's important because this number helps
officials from law enforcement and search-and-rescue
identify boats in emergency situations.
Boat operators must always carry proof of competency,
a copy of their pleasure craft license,
and a piece of personal ID on board.
You wouldn’t drive a car without insurance or a license.
Make sure you have the right documents
before you launch your boat.
Be prepared...
know the rules...
and be safe.
