Boaters urged to back DNA control of operator licensing
Wisconsin boaters heard at the Wisconsin Boating Association convention that the state could lead pleasure craft operator licensing under the 1971 Safe Boating Act or risk Coast Guard regulation. Don Beghin outlined a plan with 2,000 volunteer instructors to certify small-boat operators, likening it to a snowmobile program. The group also urged expanding eligibility to fishermen and water skiers and pressed for more fuel tax revenue for boat recreation development.
