Boating Experience
If this is your first yacht or if you are changing to a type of yacht you are not familiar with, for your own comfort and
safety, get handling and operating experience before assuming command of your yacht.
Take one of the boating safety classes offered by the U.S. Power Squadrons or the U.S. Coast Guard Auxiliary.
