| 321.1 | More CME's for 1989 | SQPUFF::HASKELL |  | Tue Mar 28 1989 09:03 | 9 | 
|  |     For those that live in the Nashua, Hollis, N.H. area that wish a
    CME call me at DTN 264-6806 or home after 6:00 P.M. 603 889-1037.
    
    There are a lot of Auxiliary members who work at DEC and are certified
    to do CMEs. All in te name of boating safety. Maybe others should
    sign on here in this note to specify the area you will cover in
    your home area.

| 321.2 | Friendly and helpful check! | CIMNET::CREASER |  | Tue Mar 28 1989 10:27 | 12 | 
|  |     Another CME opportunity. Starting in late May and continuing through
    early September, There will be Courtesy Marime Examiners on Lake
    Quinsigamond (sp?), at the State boat ramp, on the Shrewsbury side.
    
    Wednesday evenings from 6:00 to 8:00 P.M. EDT Division 10 of the
    Coast Guard Auxiliary provides CMEs in the parking lot while other
    Auxiliary members receive on the water training. It's a good
    opportunity to have your boat checked and meet some of the most
    enthusiastic boaters from the central Mass region!

| 321.3 | What about a "new" boat? | NRADM::WILSON | Think Spring! | Thu Mar 30 1989 12:22 | 12 | 
|  |     A courtesy exam sounds like a good idea.  Is the exam recommended
    for a brand new boat?  I believe I've got all the necessary safety
    equipment for a 17' boat, is anything missing from this list?
    
    1A/10BC fire extinguisher         flare kit
    anchor and line                   first aid kit
    life jackets                      throw cushion
    handheld VHF                      boarding platform
    fenders & dock lines              horn & lights
                        
    Thanks,
    Rick W.

| 321.4 | A Curtesy Examination is for everyone! | CSMET2::CHACE | let's go fishin' | Thu Mar 30 1989 16:36 | 18 |

      If you have that Curtesy Examination sticker on your boat you
    can very often save yourself the trouble of being stopped for
    a check at a later date. It tells anyone interested that your boat
    has been checked already and HAS all the equipment needed. It doesn't
    matter HOW OLD your boat is! 
      The only thing you may also need is a paddle and/or a boathook.
    You may/should also include spare plugs and a wrench in your kit
    of things to have on board. The throw device is NOT required for
    your size boat but is still a good idea.
      One thing that I just found out about VHF radios that you may
    find interesting; it is illegal to use that VHF radio on dry land!
    It requires a VERY special permit to use those VHF radios on land.
    That EVEN includes things like - if you have one mounted in your boat,
    you can't use it if the boat isn't in the water!
    
    			Have fun,

| 321.5 | RE: .4 "Throw Device" | USRCV1::FRASCH |  | Fri Mar 31 1989 14:08 | 10 | 
|  |     Kenny,
    
    Please check regarding a "Throwable" device for a 17' boat again.
    I think its over 16' requires a type I, II, III for everyone on
    board PLUS one type IV (Throwable)!!! I dont have the 204 in front
    of me but, I think its required for a 17' boat.
    
    Regards,
