Free Seminar - Emergencies on Board

Chuck Wills and the America’s Boating Club would like to welcome you to a free, 90 minute seminar starting at 2 pm on Sunday November 10 in the LGYC Ballroom.

Course Description:

Be prepared for a variety of boating mishaps, medical emergencies, and other crises!

Prevention and preparation make all the difference.  This seminar will prepare you to handle common emergencies that can happen when you are on your boat and away from the dock, whether you venture out for the day or are leaving on a longer cruise.  You will learn how to deal with them as they occur and especially when the skipper is unable to respond.

Upon completion of this seminar, you will have gained an understanding of the most common types of vessel emergencies and how to deal with them, how to handle onboard fires, how to recognize and prepare for medical emergencies and how to communicate with crew, other boats, and first responders.

Emergencies on Board is being offered as a free seminar as a public service by the America's Boating Club. This is one of the 6 modules that are part of a larger boat handling class and you will be given the opportunity to take the remainder of the modules at the seminar.
