Boaters Safety Course

[cohoho]

Just finished the on-line course, holy crap what a pain in the butt course.  Easy, but just time consuming, maybe three hrs start to finish.  The cheesy videos and reiteration of material over and over again...     But I am done and now I am ahead of the game for next years mandatory requirement for my age group.... 

[DIYARCHERYJUNKIE]

I did mine last year pain is right.  At least I never have to do it again!

[Curly]

I'll have to do it one of these days.  It will be required for me next year.

Yeah it is kind of a pain but will hopefully keep some of the idiots off the boat launches and fishin spots. I did mine several years ago weather it was required or not but being a former Coastie made that test kind of elementary really !! 

Oh and good job getting that card, I'll be much safer when I ride with you now !! 

[Blacklab]

Took mine last year and I don't even have a boat  Yet!!!

[Rick]

I got my card 6 years ago. Its card #478.

I was bored one night so I busted it out.

IIRC I don't actually need it until next year.

The wife, both daughters and I are scheduled to take it on Saturday.  Pretty much kills a day taking the live course, but I figured with the whole family it would be easier?  They aren't too stoked about it either, but at least we'll all be current.  Figured it wasn't a bad idea for the kids that are on boats a lot too, they always want to run the boat anyway!

[bloodhound]

ive never been checked even when they ask to see my licenses n stuff and i was supposed to do it years ago lol. ill just keep going till i get a warning.

[Hunterman]

Yeah, I know I don't operate my sled any safer than before the course.  They just want my $$$.

[BigGoonTuna]

i took it online about 5 or 6 years ago.  seems like most of it was oriented toward the jetski crowd.

can't say i'm any better off for it, but i have the card now.

[cohoho]

Yea, still oriented towards Jet Skis....  Nope, not thinking it helped me out any, half sleeping through the blittle videos probably didn't help me either...  Oh well it is done and I do not have to do it again.  $40 bucks later...

HOLY CRAP $40...... When I did it the test was free and just $10 for the card, I guess it is just about money after all 

[Klyne3]

uhhhh where did you take it? This reminded me I have to do mine and last I knew it was only 10 for it
