On Saturday, March 15, the U.S. Coast Guard Auxiliary will provide a special one-day boating course that satisfies all state boating education requirements. Any person born on or after Jan. 1 must complete an approved boating safety course before operating a vessel with a motor of 10 hp or greater on North Carolina waters. Even if not required by law to get the North Carolina boating license, many boaters take the boating safety course to save on their boat insurance.
