The Candlewood Lake Authority Marine Patrol is holding a combination Safe Boating and Personal Watercraft Handling course.  The education is required in order to obtain a Safe Boating Certificate, which is required to legally operate a boat with an engine or motor on Connecticut waterways for more than 60 days. In addition, to legally operate a personal watercraft, regardless of state residency, people must possess a Certificate of Personal Watercraft Operation to operate on Connecticut waters.  The two day course is taught by instructors from the Candlewood Lake Authority Marine Patrol.  The course is Friday 5pm to 9pm and Saturday 8:30am to 12:30pm at Sail Harbour Club Clubhouse in New Fairfield.  Registration is required and class size is limited. The course is $25 per person.
