Can you go boating in PA with a NJ boating license?

Answer 1

I asked the same question to my.boat-ed.com and this is what I got: In most cases, states honor other state boating safety education

certificates, if the certification is from a course that is approved by

the National Association of Boating Law Administrators (NASBLA). All of

our courses are NASBLA-approved ( see www.boat-ed.com/index.htm ).

The only exceptions I am aware of are PWC operation in Connecticut, and

Utah. CT, and UT require their own course for PWC operators. If you

already have a certificate from another state that is NASBLA-approved,

you should review the boating laws of the state where you plan to boat

before you go out.

The New Jersey State Police will honor any state issued NASBLA-approved

boating license as long as the license bearer is a resident of the

issuing state. Proof of residence (drivers license or photo id) is

suggested. (Please see < http://www.njsp.org/maritime/faq.html > question

#2).
