Don't forget to share safety!

As the frontline connection to America's boaters, retailers are the most influential source for boating information

Among others, this includes the importance of:

Always wearing life jackets
Using an engine cutoff device

Always have a proper lookout
Understanding changing weather conditions
Getting a free vessel safety check
Knowing the rules of the road, navigation
