QUEBEC, CANADA, May 22, 2023/EINPresswire.com/ -- The National Safe Boating Awareness Week promotes safe and responsible boating practices across North America. As more North American boaters are out on our waters, increased traffic is leading to more boating-related incidents.

The National Safe Boating Awareness Week reminds them of the importance of refreshing their safety knowledge before going out this spring.

In this year’s Boating Safety Awareness week, Aceboater.com wants to offer in this week the course at 50% off all week.

The National Safe Boating Awareness Week messages this season are:

Schedule a free vessel safety check with local Coast Guard Auxiliary or U.S. Power Squadrons to make sure all essential equipment is present, working and in good condition.

4. Watch the weather

You should never leave the dock without first checking the local weather forecast and water conditions. Weather and water conditions play a big role in your safety on the water.

5. Take a boating safety course

Gain valuable knowledge and on-water experience in a boating safety course with many options for novice to experienced boaters.

Don’t wait, take advantage of our 50% Boating Safety Awareness week discount by using the code BOATSAFETYAWARENESS.

You can acquire all the basic concepts to be as safe as possible while out on the water, getting your boating license will allow you to be certified, and this, from coast to coast.
