Meal breaks, etc. are not included within the 8-hour course.
Two Evening NJ Boating Safety Course: An approved multiple-day boat safety course must consist of at least 6 hours of in-person, formal instruction provided by an approved boating safety instructor. The course must culminate with a closed book, in-person, proctored exam, administered by an approved boating safety instructor.

Captain Jack's Boating Safety Course Refund and Cancellation Policy
Boating Safety Course payments are refundable if the student cancels at least 24 hours prior to their scheduled course start date.
Students that contact us to request rescheduling of a Boating Safety Course (at least 24 hours prior to their scheduled course start date) may transfer, one time, to a future scheduled Boating Safety Course at any of our locations. Once a request to transfer to another course starting date has been granted, there is no refund option.
For students that contact us to cancel or reschedule a Boating Safety Course less than 24 hours prior to their scheduled start date, there is no refund option. In this instance, students may request a transfer, one time, to any future scheduled Boating Safety Course at any of our locations as their only remedy.
Any student that fails to show up for their scheduled Boating Safety Course without any notice to us will forfeit any and all payments that they have made.
If for any reason a student is unable to complete a Boating Safety Course that they have already started, the only remedy will be to reschedule to a future course date and location (one time) and retake the entire course.
Should any Boating Safety Course, before or after commencing, need to be shut down for reasons beyond our control, there is no refund option. In this event, we will make every attempt to reschedule the course as soon as possible; however, the only remedies available to students will be to attend the course once it has reopened at the original location or a newly established location, or to reschedule to a future date and location (one time).
Captain Jack's Boating School LLC reserves the right to cancel any Boating Safety Course. Students will be given as much notice as possible. If we do cancel a course, students have the option of transferring to another scheduled Boating Safety Course date (one time) or receiving a full refund. Once a request to transfer to another Boating Safety Course starting date has been granted, there is no refund option.
