With summer approaching, the Nebraska Game and Parks Commission is reminding water lovers to be mindful of the state’s education requirements for boating.

Nebraska law requires any motorboat or personal watercraft operator born after Dec. 31, 1985 to complete a boating safety course and be in possession of a course certificate. Operators must be at least 14 years old to drive motorboats and personal watercraft in Nebraska.

Game and Parks offers three options for taking boating safety courses. They are:

— Option A – six-hour classroom course followed by proctored exam;

— Option B – home-study course in which students can download study materials before attending a three-hour review and proctored exam;

— Option C – online course for a fee of $29.95.

Classroom courses are scheduled at locations throughout the state in the coming months. To find a schedule of course offerings and enroll, visit us online.
