USCG redesigns safety website
The U.S. Coast Guard’s Office of the Auxiliary and Boating Safety has officially launched its redesigned Boating Safety website to provide easier navigation for recreational boaters to locate the information they need. The site offers users—whether a manufacturer, a boating safety partner or a recreational boater—a more streamlined route to quickly find the content or information they seek with a minimum number of keystrokes and clicks. Three main sections each focus on information specific to recreational boaters, product manufacturers or boating safety partners. Drop-down menus for regulations, product defects and safety recalls, statistics and other divisions provide conduits to broader data selections, laws, grant information and imagery libraries on the website, as well as information on the Coast Guard’s Federal Advisory Committee, the National Boating Safety Advisory Council.
