Summer is almost here and we know what that means: time with family and friends on the water! Before you launch your boat, complete a Vessel Safety Check (VSC) with a US Coast Guard Auxiliary volunteer.
A VSC is performed at your boat, either at the dock or on your driveway, and only takes 15-30 minutes, depending on the size of your boat.
Even experienced boaters need a VSC. 15 minutes could save your life and the life of your family or friends.
