Vessel Safety Checks have ended for 2010. Check back next spring for the 2011 calendar.

No Organized Safety Checks in Your Area?

ODNR Watercraft, local marine patrols, and US Coast Guard Auxiliarists arrange and conduct vessel safety inspections at the beginning of the boating season, mostly in May during National Safe Boating Week.

If no checks are listed for your area, contact your local Watercraft Office to schedule a complimentary Vessel Safety Check.
