One-day State Boating Certification Class

---

All Boat Safe Connecticut public classes are $99.00 per student, are eight hours in length, and are held throughout Connecticut at various Park and Rec Departments, Yacht Clubs and Marinas, Sporting Goods and Boating stores, Town Halls, Fire Departments and Senior Centers.  Late registration/walk-ins (with space available) are welcome!

Private classes can be held within days of initial contact - book yours now in the off season for the most convenience.  Costs are $499.00 for up to four students or $749.00 for up to seven, with $99.00 for each additional student - no student limit.  Private classes are scheduled for eight hours, held in a day or evening format, and conducted over one or more days.  After passing, students will be able to immediately purchase and print their license from the CT D.E.E.P. website.

This option is for individuals either with or without prior certification who are not interested in obtaining a "Certificate of Personal Watercraft Operation" but want to learn the basics of boating to be a guest of others, or wish to refresh their knowledge of boating safety and operation.  In addition, use this option to add the "jet-ski" operator certification to your current "Safe Boating Certificate."

Confidence operating your own boat - launching, docking, navigating, more!  Boat Safe Connecticut is certified by the National Safe Boating Council for its 'Open Water Boat Control' and 'Close Quarters Boat Control' hands-on training, which is performed under the direct supervision of a NSBC instructor and U.S.C.G. Licensed Captain.  We provide you with laminated skill sheets for additional practice after your training.
