New California boating law in effect Jan 1, 2018
If you operate a motorized vessel on California waterways you will be required to have a California Boater Card. The law will be phased-in for all boaters over the next 8 years.
If your California Boater Education Card is lost or damaged, please contact the Department of Parks and Recreation at BoaterCard@parks.ca.gov or call 1-844-421-8333 to order a replacement.
Lost or damaged cards will be replaced for a $5.00 fee.
