| A
Vessel Safety Check
is a courtesy examination of your boat to verify the
presence and condition of Safety Equipment required by
State and the Federal regulations. The Vessel Examiner is a
trained specialist and is a member of the US Coast Guard
Auxiliary. He/she will also make recommendations and
discuss safety issues that will make you a safer
boater.
The Vessel Safety Check is not a boarding
or a law enforcement event. No citations will be given as a
result of the Safety Check. We will supply you with a copy of
our evaluation so that you may follow the suggestions
given. Vessels that pass will be able to display our
distinctive VSC decal. This does not exempt you from law
enforcement boarding, but you can be prepared to make this a
positive encounter. |
