The Waynoka Water Sports Club will be sponsoring an Ohio Boating Education Course at 8 a.m. on Saturday, March 27 at the Lodge. Cost of this course is $5 payable to ODNR Watercraft.

This course will consist of 8 hours of instruction in a certified class followed by an exam. This year everybody younger than 28 years of age needs to pass a test certified by the state before they can drive any type of boat powered by more than 10 HP.

This class and exam will fulfill the Ohio’s Boater Education Requirement that went into effect in January of 2000 and is administered by the ODNR Division of Watercraft.

The law prohibits any person born on or after January 1, 1982, from operating a vessel powered by more than 10 HP unless the person has successfully completed either a boating education course approved by the National Association of State Boating Law Administrator (NASBLA) or a proficiency examination approved by ODNR Division of Watercraft.

You can pre-register for the class by calling ODNR Watercraft at 513-734-2730.  Be sure to reference the date and location for above class.

This class is open for any age and not just Lake Waynoka.
