The Boating Safety Division of the Coast Guard is responsible for developing, maintaining, and enforcing recreational boat manufacturing safety regulations. The booth staff is available to explain to builders why it is important to comply with the regulations, to educate them on how to comply, and to answer any questions. Check out the manufacturer section of our website at www.uscgboating.org where you will find the Boatbuilders Handbook that not only contains the manufacturer safety regulations but also has plain english guidelines to help you understand and comply with the regulations.
