Get a Temporary FL Boater Education Certificate

In accordance with Florida law, individuals born on or after January 1, 1988, are required to complete an approved boater safety course if they intend to operate a vessel with an engine of 10 horsepower or more. To comply with this law, you must carry both photographic identification and a boating safety education identification card issued by the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission (FWC) whenever you are operating a boat.

The good news is that there is a convenient solution for those seeking to fulfill this requirement. A partnership has been established with Boat Tests 101, offering a quick and hassle-free way for individuals to obtain a temporary Florida boater education certificate online. This certificate is essential before renting and operating a boat in Florida, ensuring that you are in compliance with the necessary safety regulations.

OUR HISTORY

Hayley’s jet ski and boat rental started in 2005 in Vero Beach as a family business. The owner Matt was retired at the ripe old age of 35 and, according to his daughter Hayley, he needed something to do. She wrote a business plan (at just 15 yrs old) and the ball was rolling. The business started with 2 jet skis and soon expanded service from Cocoa Beach to Fort Pierce Inlet. The family decided to start renting boats and to start a boat club in Melbourne because they saw a void in the market. Hayley’s bought Mariner boat rentals and Club Nautica, both of which had been in the Melbourne area for more than 20 years. The same phone number has been used for the boat rentals and club since 1985. The business has grown to be the largest rental fleet in Florida.

LOCATION MATTERS

According to the experts, we have the best location on the Indian River Lagoon because it offers great access to parks, recreational areas and top-tier waterfront restaurants you can dock at for a quick bite or a drink. We're also surrounded by a variety of islands and sandbars that are great spots for socializing with other boaters. If you're looking to go dolphin watching, island exploring, tubing, fishing, water-skiing, or just go for a cruise and spend some time with family and friends, we are here to serve you! We love helping our customers plan their trips by making suggestions for the best fishing spots, locations to spot dolphins and manatees, relaxing hideaways, and the best restaurants.
