Three-month boater safety course starts in January
Published: November 22, 2005
If you are a boater 50 years old or younger, beginning this January you will need to obtain a license to operate a boat in Oregon.  

Coast Guard Auxiliary Flotilla 76 is offering an eight-week public boating safety course in Portland, Ore., which begins on Jan. 19 and ends on April 13. The class is open to the public and costs $40 for one person or $55 for two, with an additional $12.50 charged for course materials.

Upon completion, you will receive a certificate enabling you to operate a boat with more than 10 horsepower.
6-weeks of class  :eek ....you've got to be kidding... :rolleyes
Too cold for boating up there anyway...  :laugh

There are exceptins:  
Is anyone exempt from needing a boater education card?
Yes. Exemptions apply to:

Out-of-state and foreign visitors: If they will be boating in Oregon for less than 60 days or hold a boater education card from another state.
Boaters with a current Coast Guard Boat Operator License: Boaters such as guides and barge operators who hold a current Coast Guard Boat Operator License are exempt from the requirement.
Commercial Fisherman: Boaters who hold a current commercial fishing license do not have to carry a boater education card when operating recreationally but do need to carry their commercial license or documentation. (ORS 830.092(2))
Non-certified, supervised adults: The law allows a non-certified adult to operate a power boat IF under direct supervision of an adult 16 or older who is carrying a boater education card.
New Boat Buyers: Buyers have a temporary exemption, valid for up to 60 days.
Boat Renters: Renters will be exempt, but must complete a dockside safety checklist.


Here  is a link to the rules:   http://www.marinebd.osmb.state.or.us/Educati....Wh-2914  
If link does not work, copy and past it into the address line of a new browser window, hit enter and it should work.

I didn't see anything regulating speed just horse power. So as long as you don't let any more than 10 horses paddle, you're alright.

I asked the kid that was putting gas in the van if they were trained ,he said no. So I don't know why they have them pump the gas instead of letting people do it them selves. It can only be explaned as, "It's an Oregon thing".
