Boat Safe Connecticut followed the guidelines of state and federal agencies regarding the Coronavirus disease (COVID-19). We suspended or cancelled all our public and publicly scheduled group classes, including Boat Club, Park/Rec. and Yacht Club classes until a future date to be determined. We apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused.
Boat Safe Connecticut however, has specialized in private classes since our inception. We offer private classes, including classes for families with school age individuals. For more information and a note from the owner, please click below to see our "Classes and Costs" page.
When public classes resume:
Our focus is on you to make sure you have the knowledge to operate a vessel safely, and pass the D.E.E.P. provided final class exam. Doing so enables you to immediately purchase your nationally accepted, permanent "Certificate of Personal Watercraft Operation" (C.P.W.O. - boating and personal watercraft operator's 'license') issued by the D.E.E.P. Our instructors have years of experience teaching boating safety in Connecticut, with State of Connecticut certified teachers and USCG Licensed Captains on staff.
Boat Safe Connecticut, LLC is the only Better Business Bureau Accredited, DEEP Approved, "Safe Boating Course Agent" education provider in the State of CT. Go to the BBB.org link below for reviews.
Students successfully completing the class can immediately purchase their nationally accepted boating license from the DEEP and leave class with their license in hand. We provide everything you need, including the Boat Connecticut textbook, pen, pencil, writing pad, waterproof navigation and VHF-FM radio stickers, 2020 Connecticut Boaters Guide, course syllabus, and more. The classroom based presentation is powerpoint and video format including student interaction with hands on demonstrations of common boating equipment and supplies.
