    To all in the Phoenix, AZ area that are interested:
    I'm a certified Volunteer Boating Safety Instructor for the Arizona Game and Fish Department. I've been doing this for the past 3 years.
    This year I've set up some classes in the Northwest Phoenix, AZ area. These classes are free. When you complete the class you will get a certificate issued by the Game and Fish.
    Alot of information is given out in the class. The course of instruction covers all of the basics with regards to boating. Such as PFD's, trailering, navigation, equipment, coast guard and state requirements and much more.
    Class info:

    Class starts at 10am and end at approx. 7pm
    There will be an approx. 1 hour lunch break. This is an 8 hour course.

    Don't forget that you could save up to 25% on your boat insurance after you take a course like this.
    I guarantee that there isn't anyone out there that will leave this class without learning something. Most people leave learning how much they DIDN'T know.
    Our next class is June 19th. Also free.
    So what's YOUR excuse for not going?

    I did the class in needles and i will tell you, I learned alot of good info on alot of topics.There are alot of things that i thought i knew but turns out they were only half right and it is good to know and if you ever get in trouble, the little coast guard card goes along way with the police and such.Not saying to do it for that, but every thing helps.I got 25% off my insurance and i feel more comfortable knowing the laws and water way rules.For instance,lets say you were floating down river,dringing a cold one,did you know that your boat is concidered under way and if you were drinking, engine off ,you could still get a dwi? lots of knowlage to be given out i would tell anyone to do !!!! just my .02 cents
