Training & Safety
Safety is a top priority — club members receive complimentary initial hands-on training, whatever their experience level.
From First Certificate to Confident Helm
The first step is the online Boat Smart course, followed by the hands-on training we provide. Members then participate in either the US Power Squadron or US Coast Guard Auxiliary boating safety course.
Florida Boater Safety Course
Complete the online Boater Safety Course for Florida to earn your certificate — you can do this before you ever visit the dock.
Club Orientation & Hands-On Training
Individualized, on-the-water training with the club, matched to your comfort level and previous boating skill. Every member also gets a safety check-out each time they take a boat, so you always know where the gear is.
USCG “Boat America” or Power Squadron
Within your first 90 days, complete the US Coast Guard “Boat America” course — in class at a local office or on Zoom, available in Miami — or a US Power Squadron course.
