New law will finally require training for boaters

The State of Florida has finally taken steps to make boating safer. Anyone born on or after Jan. 1, 1988 and who purchases a boat will have 90 days from the purchase date to obtain a boating safety identification card. This isn't a license, but it's the next best thing. Licensing would require on-water skills testing, and it might still come to that, but at least this is a step in the right direction."
