Learn to be a safe boater is like learning to be a safe driver. You need to know the nautical "rules of the road" - as well as federal, state and local laws - and obey them.
In this merit badge center, you will learn about boating safety, nautical signs and signals, boat handling and seamanship, weather, services and emergencies, and care of the boat, motor and boating equipment. There will be verbal requirements and time to get out on the water in a motorboat.
