Boating Safety and Regulations: Boating is just as important when it comes to fishing and there ARE rules and regulation's about   who can drive and operate a boat. Many do not know, in some cases a certificate is required!

A Wisconsin Safety boating certificate or out of State certificate is required if you were born on or after Jan 1, 1989 and at least 16 years old.

Kids 10 and under, can take the boating safety course and receive the certificate but the certificate does not become valid till they are 12.
