Do You Need a Boating License?

Not from Canada? Visit out USA Boating License Page.

All operators of powered watercraft used for recreational purposes within Canada now require a boating license. 

As of September 15, 2009 all boaters are now required to have the Pleasure Craft Operator Card in order to operate a powered watercraft. There is no grandfather clause or age exemption – this law applies to all boaters. Powered watercraft includes watercraft fitted with any size motor – even a trolling motor.

To receive this boat operator license, you must pass a multiple choice exam with a score of at least 75%. If you don't pass on your first attempt, you can retry the exam at no additional cost.

Where can I take my exam and get my boating license?

You can write your exam directly on the internet at BoaterExam.com. Once you pass the exam your boat operator license is mailed to your home. In the meantime, you can print of a temporary license and use that while you wait for your permanent card to arrive.

Where can I study for my boating license?

All the required safe boating training material to get your boat operator license is available for free at BoaterExam.com. Simply visit our Free Safe Boating Training section to gain access to the course manual.

Where can I get more information about Canadian boating regulations and the Canadian boating license?

Answers to most of your questions can be found on our Frequently Asked Questions page of BoaterExam.com. You may also visit the Canadian Coast Guard Office of Boating Safety for additional information.
