Safety Canada Online Hot Issues Awards Campaigns ... New Boating Safety Regulations New Boating Safety Regulations Expected to Save Lives New regulations are being introduced this year to reduce boating fatalities in Canada from their present level of 200 annually. Currently in Canada, anyone of any age can operate any boat of any size without any formal training or experiences. In fact, two-thirds of those operating powered boats in Canada lack any formal training in boating safety or operation. With more and more boaters taking to the waterways in new, and increasingly powerful vessels, the status quo could be a recipe for disaster. Age and Horsepower Restrictions Effective April 1, 1999, children under the age of 12 will no longer be permitted to operate boats above 10 horsepower for recreational purposes unless accompanied by a person 16 years of age or older. On the same date, youth at least 12 years of age, but under 16 years of age, will no longer be permitted to operate boats above 40 horsepower unless accompanied by an individual 16 years of age or older. Finally, as of April 1, 1999, the new minimum age for operating Personal Water Craft (PWC) will be 16 years of age. Operator Competency Beginning on September 15, 1999 youth under 16 years of age (as of April 1, 1999) operating powered craft used for recreational purposes will be required to have proof of operator competency. This requirement will be extended to all operators of power boats less than four metres in length, as well as all PWCs. By September 15, 2009, proof of operator competency will be required for all power boat operators.

Boating Rules Your location: Rideau Region Rideau Waterway Home Boating Information Site Index Boating Rules and Regulations As a boater, you have to follow a set of rules and regulations that are designed to protect you, other boaters, and wildlife habitat of the region. The rules are not onerous, most involve common sense, and responsible boaters have no trouble abiding by them. It is worth noting that Ontario has on-the-spot ticketing and fines for boaters contravening regulations issued under the Canada Shipping Act and the Department of Transport Act (which includes the Historic Canals Regulations). This makes it much easier for the police to enforce the on-water rules and makes it safer for all boaters. Fines are not cheap, many are in the the $200+ range for offences such as not carrying enough PFDs, speeding, and failure to turn off electrical equipment while refuelling. Boating Regulations Operators Card: All boaters operating a powered craft less than 4 metres in length (this includes all PWCs) and all boaters born after April 1, 1983 (operating a powered vessel of any type - see age restrictions below) must have and carry a Pleasure Craft Operators Card. By 2009, everyone operating a powered vessel will require a Pleasure Craft Operators Card. For more info see the

California Home DBW Home Programs and Services Boating Safety and Education ... Commission Regulations Cal Boating is responsible for reviewing, updating, and adopting State boating regulations as needed to reflect changes in Federal boating law and to maintain uniformity among Federal and State laws. Local government entities may also adopt certain boating regulations, or ordinances, for waterways in their areas. These ordinances can pertain only to time-of-day restrictions, speed zones, special-use areas, and sanitation and pollution control. Cal Boating works with local agencies in the development of their regulations and recommends model local ordinances to maintain uniformity among boating ordinances. Cal Boating also may work with the Federal government in the development and administration of Federal laws and regulations as they relate to marine safety and navigation. In-the-water construction projects can potentially create safety problems that could endanger the lives of boaters. Cal Boating, therefore, reviews environmental documents such as Environmental Impact Reports for impacts on boating safety. During this biennial period, Cal Boating reviewed more than 290 environmental reports on construction projects on California waterways. Through this process, the Department provides recommendations for safety measures that assist in the reduction of fatalities and accidents.

According to your recent Courtesy Marine Exam, you are carrying all required and recommended equipment. But, do you know what else marine officers are likely to check? Numbering and Registration Just as you wouldn't drive your car without a license plate, current sticker, and registration, your boat must be properly numbered, stickered, and your registration on board. Boat numbers must be affixed on both bows with three inch contrasting letters, with spaces or hyphens between numerals and letters, as: MD 1234 AB or MD-1234-AB. This is a Federal and State requirement. Also, the State requires a current sticker immediately after or before the boat numbers on the port side. Many boaters like to carry their boat papers on a floating key ring handle so they will always have them close at hand. (Click on state numbering thumbnail for better view) Your vessel will also have (if manufactured since 1972) a Hull Identification Number which is the serial number of your vessel. This number is usually located on the upper right portion of the vessels' transom. This number indicates the boat manufacturer, its serial number, and the month and year of production. This number is used to register the boat, and to identify an individual boat.
