Boat Safety - US Coast Guard Auxiliary Vessel Safety Check
Вставка
- Опубліковано 22 лип 2021
- In the name of boat safety, I submit my boat to a vessel safety check performed by a member of the US Coast Guard Auxiliary. A USCG Vessel Inspection helps you know if you have all of the required safety equipment on your boat. Having the right safety equipment on your boat is essential to boat safety. The USCG Auxiliary perform these vessel safety checks at no cost and there's no penalty if you fail the safety inspection. Boating safety is important and having all of the boat safety gear on board can help save lives and prevent bad situations from becoming much worse situations. I also learned a few safe boating tips while he reviewed the safety equipment.

I was pretty nervous recording this one because I really was curious to see if I could pass on my first try.
Nah, no need to be nervous. If you fail, the video would’ve gotten more views. 👍🏻
Never underestimate those older guys of the Coastguard, many have years of experience and will put you right.
You don't need online courses just get in touch with him if you have any questions.
Nice family boat.
Oh yeah he was great to talk to!
Thanks for the upload Wayne. These are good things for boaters to be aware of. You can never be too safe on the water
Thank YOU!
Good job. I'm exempt form the boating course but took it anyways. I took an online course through BoaterED and learned far more than I thought I would. Just brushing up on the navigational rules which I thought I had down pretty well was helpful. There is also quite a bit of boater safety info that some may think is common sense but probably isn't. Ultimately there is no excuse for time on the water and knowing your boat.
There's always something to learn!
Thank you Wayne for all the good work you're doing.
That coast guard seemed friendly and super easy to talk to and very helpful
He is part of the auxiliary and just does these inspections.
Nice job, Bill Riley, experienced Coast Guard Auxiliary member, 5th District South, on this vessel safety check. Contact the Coast Guard Auxiliary if you want a free vessel safety check. Thanks for the video.
We just had our boater safety check! We will have our video out soon! 👍
Beautiful boat, I like your organization!!
Always great to know what Coast Guard expects.
Great to see safety promoted
Great video, Wayne.
Glad you enjoyed it
Love it thanks! boat guy☕🍰 let's watch
Get the Coast Guard emergency radio protocol and memorize it. It will help the Coast guard greatly
Doing this also helps from getting stopped while out on the water. If the coast guard or dirt sees u out & u have the sticker, a lot if times u won't get stopped for random safety checks
Dnr
The inspector mentioned that used to be the case but now sometimes they will still stop people.
Even if they stopped you, their view and treatment toward you is very different if you din't have the sticker, have mine every year for 17 years.
Can you post the link to the check list?
The sticker is the real incentive for sure.
I DO like stickers!
Born in the 1960’s?? Damm, Wayne, you are really ancient!! 😂 But I bet not quite as ancient as I am (‘62!)! 😂
As a member of the U.S. Coast Guard Auxiliary, I am so happy you made this and are able to show people there is no downside to a Vessel Safety Check (VSC). This check can prevent you from sustaining injury or death in an emergency. Sometimes people only recognize things in $$$. So I add, if you are stopped by the USCG, DNR, or other law enforcement, not having something that would be been able to been noticed during a VSC, may save you a lot of money in fines. Semper Paratus.
Congrats on your first time "Go".
Boating safety course online is available. I used Boat ed.
Yes they are - did you like it?
@@WayneTheBoatGuy ,
Very much so, I am like you where I’ve been grandfathered (old fart) in, and been riding a Jetskis, and a few times on the boat without a cert, but really I was actually amazed at how much I really didn’t know such as knowing right of way & types of buoys.
But yes it’s very well done with quizzes. Great videos and interactive scenarios. Well worth it.

@@WayneTheBoatGuy I'm a USCG Auxiliary Boating Safety instructor. While I took mine online 15 years ago when I was 15, there is so much more you learn from doing the in-person one.
By the way wayne, I notice that is a four winns, does that have a Volvo penta outdrive?
Yes it does!
Just getting out of your diapers, talk to me when your 80, if I'm not pushing up weeds or dust in the wind !
Is the coastguard check the same nationwide or different per state?
I think it's tweaked by each state to include any additional state requirements.
As Wayne said, the federal Coast Guard regulations (safety equipment, etc) are nationwide, with some states adding additional requirements onto that (check your state rules). With the latter, the Coast Guard will check that you meet those requirements as well. These free on-shore or in-dock examinations are complimentary. However, if you're caught on the water violating the regulations, fines and similar will more than likely be imposed. - Branch Chief, Public Affairs Dept, Member Training (BC-ATM), USCGA
Fire extinguisher?
Yes I have one and it was good.
I live in New Jersey and I bought a boat from out of state. It’s registered with the unit with the United States Coast Guard should I keep it registered with the United States Coast Guard or go to New Jersey to division of motor vehicle
I think you have to register it in your state and the CG registration is separate.
You have a new boat?
We got this one in September.
Inspection FAIL on the fire extinguisher by the vessel examiner. You are NOT just checking pressure gauge. Many non commercial fire extinguishers have an expiration date - he did not even look and actually stated he was only looking for charge.
This VE was done in 2022. Only recently was arequirement added that extinguisher can be no older than 12 years old if there is a date (on the bottom). Still has to have gague in green.. They generally do not have expiration dates.
Nor did he look at fuel hoses, fittings as best as can be seen, besides flame arrestor on carb, another thing, battery connections, cables as can be seen, frayed, lose corroded, routed, which can cause no start, fires !
Dang Quit talking and interrupting him. Yáll Don't need a length of Rope on your "Throwable Device" ? We have to have a medium of 25' of line on our's
I hope they're copies lol
Good point! I should make copies of my registration
Dang,BIDEN doing marine inspections
He is a USCG Auxiliary volunteer you might try it if you have the energy! No way Biden could do a vessel check , he cain't even wipe his own butt!!!
