North Carolina Sea Grant – News & Events



North Carolina Sea Grant – News & Events.

May 18 – May 24, 2013

National Safe Boating Week is an opportunity to highlight the importance of safety precautions and sensible behavior when spending time on the water, including wearing a life jacket, not boating under the influence of drugs and alcohol, and being aware of other general boating safety practices.

North Carolina Sea Grant believes the best safety device is knowledge. For book knowledge, we suggest starting with the N.C. Wildlife Resources Commission for information about North Carolina boating laws and for boater safety certification courses. The USCG Auxiliary and U.S. Power Squadron volunteers also conduct boating safety classes at numerous coastal and inland locations.

Boat Safety

motor boatDon’t let this hurricane season take the wind out of your boating fun. Between June 1 and November 30, boaters should keep tuned into weather events and plan ahead to secure their vessels.

But even the most rigorous protective measures will not guarantee that your boat will survive a storm. These actions will certainly help lessen damages to your vessel and lead the way to smooth sailing through the upcoming hurricane season.

Take Me Fishing | Education is Key.

Education is Key

Education is one of the most important aspects of boating and fishing safely and responsibly. Knowing the ins and outs of your boat, how to navigate waterways, how to read a nautical chart and how to operate a VHF radio are just a few important things to learn before going out on the water.

Education & Safety Courses

Every state has its own boating safety requirements and/or guidelines, but regardless of rules and regulations, successfully completing a boating class increases your water safety and boating skills. Sometimes it even qualifies you for a discount on your insurance.
