Boating education course now mandatory for greater number of young boaters in louisia
 

Beginning Thursday, July 1, anyone born after Jan. 1, 1984, will be required to successfully complete a National Association of State Boating Law Administrators (NASBLA) boating education course to operate a motorboat over 10 horsepower in Louisiana. The state law previously required that anyone born after Jan. 1, 1988, had to complete a course. The 2009 Legislature approved the new age requirement with July 1, 2010 as the effective date.

My son took boating safety and hunter safety courses in jr high.

Looks like Brayden has some more schooling to do.

I gotta take mine now. that put me in the window for it

Yea the same thing happened to me, I took mine a couple months ago.

i missed the cut off by a few weeks, i took mine got the temp card in my wallet, been waiting on the other one for weeks!

I think mine took almost a month to come in.

I gotta do the damn hunter safety course.......dreading that one....

You never took that??? It's very easy, all common sense. Be warned though, it's not like the boaters safety course...you actually have to show you're competent enough to handle a gun before you pass the class.

When I went to get hunting license every year, I'd tell the girl I lost my card and just made up a number.......they'd print out my tags and everything......last year my name was flagged, so now I gotta take it.....

LOL

he already took his:grinpimp: he was my DD in toledo

Designated dancer??

I think there are laws against that

he was actually short enough to dance on the pole for my pedestal seat on the front deck:rotfl:

Hey no free beer for you this weekend!

Astericks i took that test when i was 10

Damn I never took that test and I was born 5-19-1984. This blows! Where do u take it?

online!!!

Website anyone? Ray?

Can ya cheat ?

There was a class on June 19th at the Lake Charles Sail and Power Squadron.
Now you have to take it online or at the LDWF.
I will post up when the next one is at the LCSPS.
If we get enough people on here to sign up, the LCSPS will make a date to fit your needs. It is usually $10, which includes meals.
They give all the prep. info. that will be on the test, then take the test around 3:30 pm.
The Coast Guard Aux. had a class also, but I don't see any of their info. around anymore.
If you call Ship to Shore, Sheron might have more info.

I took the hunter safety class way back when it was first started, about 1984.

It was on a cold day [~40 F] in an outside covered shelter with the wind blowing. Everyone wearing insulated clothing and jackets. After the first hour, everyone had to get up and run around to warm up. I have never been that cold hunting on a deer stand.

One of my sisters teaches the hunters safety course.

DUH
