BoaterExam District of Columbia Launches Interactive Boater Education Course

Successfully completing the online boating safety coursework allows students
to obtain the DC boating safety certificate

WASHINGTON, June 10 /PRNewswire/ -- The District of Columbia is the latest
state to launch the new BoaterExam interactive boater education course as an
online option to obtain the D.C. boating safety certificate. Now, District of
Columbia residents will have access to an animated and narrated course they
can take online when it's convenient for them. This boating education course
is approved by the National Association of State Boating Law Administrators
(NASBLA), recognized by the US Coast Guard and covers 100 percent of the
state's exam requirements.

"We are extremely excited about this new course process," said Kerry Moher,
vice president, BoaterExam.com. "The study guide has more than 150 animations
and practice quizzes that will better prepare students to successfully
complete the final exam."

BoaterExam.com course participants learn about boat classifications, hull
designs, motors, legal requirements for registration and equipment, navigation
rules, basic safety regulations and waterway marking systems all in a
narrative fashion with more than 300 original illustrations and 150 animated
video clips. Each of the course's seven chapters is followed by chapter
summaries and practice quizzes. Students also have access to BoaterExam.com's
industry exclusive toll-free customer service help line (1-866-764-2628) from
8 a.m. to 11 p.m. (central), seven days a week.

Anyone operating a vessel on District of Columbia waterways is required to
have a Boating Safety Certificate (also mistakenly referred to as the
'District of Columbia Boating License') in possession at the time of
operation.

"Online education programs such BoaterExam.com provide an opportunity for
people to be trained and educated in boating safety techniques through an
online study guide that is animated and narrated," said Gail Kulp, Education
Director - National Association of State Boating Law Administrators (NASBLA).

The BoaterExam.com course and final exam is free: students pay a one-time fee
of $29.95 only when they pass the final exam to obtain their official results.
A temporary card can be printed immediately and the permanent boating safety
certificate will arrive in 2-3 weeks. Passing a boater education course may
also result in a discount for boat or personal watercraft insurance. For
