Description:

Students, please take the helm! DBMS is excited to offer a brand new and expanded on-water only boater’s education course this summer. You must have a Junior Operator’s License to register for this class.  During this two day class students will spend a total of 8 hours on the water and at the wheel with USCG certified Captains. Modeled after “Driver’s Education,” our Captains will instruct while your student navigates Duxbury Bay and Plymouth Harbor. Covered topics include safety, navigation, boat handling, docking, anchoring, and advanced maneuvers. All our instructor Captains have years of experience on small and large vessels. If you’re looking for the highest level of instruction and an invaluable opportunity for your 12-17 year old, this is the class to sign up for.
