A Vessel Safety Check is a courtesy examination of your boat (Vessel) to verify the presence and condition of certain Safety Equipment required by State and the Federal Regulations.  The Vessel Examiner is a trained specialist and is a member of the US Coast Guard Auxiliary or United States Power Squadrons.  They will also make certain recommendations and discuss certain safety issues that will make you a safer boater.

This is not a boarding, or a law enforcement issue.  No citations will be given as a result of this encounter.  We will supply you with a copy of our evaluation so that you may follow some of the suggestions given.  Vessels that pass will be able to display our distinctive VSC decal.  This does not exempt you from law enforcement boarding, but you can be prepared to make this a positive encounter.

Should you desire a Vessel Safety Check, please follow the following link & select "I want a VSC" to provide the boater with access to our database of volunteers to perform a FREE vessel safety check in our "I Want a VSC" system.  Enter your zip code to find the closest examiner, and contact one of the examiners that are listed on the output.
