Ensuring safe boating practices on research missions

The mission of the University of South Florida's Boating Safety Program is to effectively provide training, support and oversight for the operators of small vessels used in research. As such, we must develop and implement university policy; adopt acceptable community standards for training; educate and train members in both safe and environmentally sound boating practices.

The purpose of the Boating Safety Program is to ensure that all Å·ÃÀÈý¼¶Æ¬ research related boating is conducted in a manner that will maximize protection of passengers from accidental injury, and to set forth standards for training and certification for Å·ÃÀÈý¼¶Æ¬ personnel and their affiliates.
