Vessel Safety Checks – A major component of a fun filled outing is a reliable boat which has all the necessary equipment operating properly. A free vessel safety check (VSC) is an important safe-guard, and our certified examiners will be happy to perform the check for you. There are no consequences if you don’t pass.

Communication – Nothing beats being able to stay in touch with others when you’re off shore. A number of members do so not only by standard VHF radio communications, but also by ham radio.

But it’s also a service that has saved lives when regular communication systems failed. If you think you might want to dive into the world of on-the-water communication via ham, check out this page.
