Safe Boating Week Gets Underway With Classes, Inspections

Huntington’s Safe Boating Week kicks off Saturday with boat inspections and a class on boating safety.

The week of events is sponsored by the Town of Huntington and the Greater Huntington Council of Yacht and Boating Clubs.

Supervisor Chad Lupinacci spoke Thursday about several steps the town is taking to improve safety, particularly as more and more vessels crowd Huntington Harbor.  He noted that while only those who who Saturday’s eight-hour safe boating class will receive official credit from the state, the town will post a video of the course on its website for everyone to view.
