Canada Boating Operator's License

Hello!
Just bought a used sailboat this year. Registered it but discovered because it has an outboard engine (in case of there being NO wind, that you need a Transport Canada Approved boating license that you can get many places including Canadian Tire Corp.

The price is usually $49.95 for one boating license including access by only one person. If several people sign up then the fee is reduced for each one to as little as $9.95 per person.

However not being satisfied that this was necessary for a sailboat I checked online and shucks they are correct.

So I looked for a cheaper way to get it and just found Boatin'Bob at https://www.boatnbob.com/ operated by Betterboating.ca.

While others reduce the fee above by a few dollars, Better Boating reduces it to only $26.99 plus tax and guarantees that this is the best price! So do you see why a few minutes of searching can save you over $20??? :)

Info from the course ....

Do I Need A Boating Licence In Canada?


YES! Excluding the Northwest Territories or Nunavut, all persons who operate a recreational motorized pleasure craft in Canada must carry a Transport Canada Pleasure Craft Operator Card (PCOC) commonly referred to as a boating license or equivalent proof of competency on board.
