Florida Boating Regulations and Laws
The Florida Boating Safety Education ID Card (also referred to as the Florida boating license) is proof that a boater has taken and passed an approved boater education course. The Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission currently has a mandatory boater education requirement that has been law since October 1, 1996 requiring all boaters 21 years old and younger to have the Florida boating license on board when the vessel is underway to satisfy the Florida boating regulations. Many boating fatalities occur because boaters aren't educated about boating safety. The Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission believes that an educated boater is a safer boater.

    Until 1999, the federal government did a very poor job at maintaining web sites about safety and regulations for recreational boaters. As a result, this web page used to be a source of information on these subjects. However, the federal government now maintains a number of excellent web sites about the recreational boating regulations and safety. They can be found at the following link:

New Boating Safety Regulations
Toronto, Ontario
January 18, 1999 Thank you for being here today. As the Minister responsible for the Canadian Coast Guard, I want to thank the organizers of the Toronto International Boat Show for allowing us the use of this venue. This is particularly timely given the presentation last night of the first Canadian Safe Boating Awards (CASBAs), created to promote safe and responsible recreational boating. Before providing you with an overview of the new boating safety regulations , I want to thank the thousands of Canadians and the many recreational boating associations who took part in the broad consultative process that preceded their development. These individuals are the real architects of these reasonable and balanced measures which are to be published in the Canada Gazette on February 3,1999. A Call to Action We all know that Canadians love the water. Some 8 million Canadians are boaters, and Canadians own an estimated 2.6 million recreational boats.
