At this point in time, there is no federal law covering minimum ages for boaters, but many states have minimum ages and licensing requirements. See the link below for information on a state by state basis. Boating education courses are inexpensive, and very worthwhile if you are a boater. Most states are moving towards licensing, so even if your state has no requirements at the present time, if you take a boating safety course now, you will in all probability be grandfathered in if, and when, your state does adopt boating educational requirements. The US Power Squadron has a nationally recognized boating education program in most, if not all, states.
