• BoatUS Foundation and United States Coast Guard Boating Safety Toolkit

Despite the recreational boating season beginning to wind down, the safety of your customers and others on the water should still be of the utmost importance.

Boating Education — Boater Safety

As summer begins to change into fall, colder water and changing weather patterns may put your customers in situations that emphasize the importance of recreational boating safety. The MRAA is proud to share with you the “Before You Boat Toolkit,” created by the BoatUS Foundation and the United States Coast Guard. Marine dealers can use this partner toolkit to amplify Before You Boat, a national safety campaign that delivers boating education in an accessible, engaging and essential way.

Inside you’ll find ready-to-use newsletter copy and links to downloadable social media assets to help you spread the word with ease. To access the toolkit, simply click here.

Toolkit Assets

The toolkit features a variety of ready-to-go assets like newsletters, social media posts and video assets. The MRAA recommends you make use of these assets and encourage your customers to lean into recreational boating safety, as this will help ensure that their time on the water stays safe and fun. The MRAA encourages recreational boating safety in the policy arena, but keeping boaters safe on the water is an all-hands-on-deck effort.
