I have no idea why no states require a boating exam and driving test (Just like a drives license) before buying a boat or driving a boat for that sake.

Boating is the leisurely activity of traveling by boat, or the recreational use of a boat whether powerboats, sailboats, or man-powered vessels (such as rowing and paddle boats), focused on the travel itself, as well as sports activities, such as fishing or water skiing. It is a popular activity, and there are millions of boaters worldwide.

Thanks for the info, I've been trying to figure out what boating was.

You mean that's NOT water polo? Fack, I've been doing it wrong!

Try this one, https://elearning.boatus.org/catalog/?id=1 something we all could benefit from. I retook it last year and got a couple wrong, still ended up in the nineties. One was a channel marker cant remember the other.

yes, an easy test, but that can't be it. The Washington State test has something like 6 or 7 sections and has something like 60-100 questions. It was still pretty easy if you reviewed the material.

Probably good states are starting to enforce this stuff, I see a lot of unqualified boaters out there.

I think there should be a practical exam as well. It would be a blast to go out and give an enforcement officer a real ride.
