Recreational Boating Knowledge - American National Standards
American National Standards for recreational boating knowledge were developed by the National Association of State Boating Law Administrators’ (NASBLA) Education Standards Panel (ESP). Since these standards serve as primary source documents for recreational boating knowledge, we recommend using this link to learn more about the standards and explore their use to design and deliver instruction that integrates acquisition of knowledge within the development of skills for safe and enjoyable recreational boating.
