This six-hour state-approved course covers safe navigation, required equipment and state laws for all types of boating including personal watercraft. In addition to earning a Texas Parks and Wildlife Boater Education certificate, class participants can receive a 10 percent reduction in boater insurance rates.
Anyone born on or after Sept. 1, 1984 must take a boater education class before they can legally operate a boat or personal watercraft powered by a motor of 10 or more horsepower, or a sailboat that is more than 14 feet in length. Those age 18 or older are exempted from the law.
