NJ Boating Safety Classes | Captain Jack’s Boating School

One Day Boating Safety Class: An approved one-day boat safety course must be at least 8 hours in length. It must consist of in-person, formal instruction provided by an approved boating safety instructor, and must culminate with a closed book, in-person, proctored exam. The time required to complete the exam is included within the 8-hour time requirement. No more than one ten- minute break is permitted per hour. Meal breaks, etc. are not included within the 8-hour course.

Two Evening Boating Safety Class: 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. Written homework must be assigned as necessary, so that the total course time (6 or more hours of in-person instruction + test + written homework) equals at least 8 hours. The time required to complete the exam and homework is not counted within the 6 hours of in-person instruction. No more than one ten- minute break is permitted per hour. Meal breaks, etc. are not included within the 6 hours of in-person instruction.

Students that do not cancel at least three days prior to their class start date may transfer to any other scheduled class at any of our locations; there is no refund option if cancellation does not occur at least three days prior to the scheduled class start date.
