NASBLA = National Association of State Boating Law Administrators

NH Hampshire will accept NASBLA approved certificates from MOST but not ALL other sources. Notably NH will NOT recognize the NASBLA approved Boat US on-line course and certificate (CT and a few other states do not recognize the Boat US cert). Courses and Safe Boating Ed Certificates proctored by Power Squadron and USCGA are also accepted in NH.

Here's a link to a chart of states and their respective certificate requirements (from NASBLA) Boater Education Requirements by state. Includes links to the specific Safe Boating agencies in each state. When in doubt, call/write the appropriate agency and get confirmation.


Discussion about end of on-line testing in NH

December post re: NASBLA and NH portions quoted above.

Again, check with NH MP to find out if your NASBLA approved certificate is accepted in NH. Take names

The rules are so easy to follow aren't they?

Happy and safe boating.
