Description:

To get your Pleasure Craft Operator Card (PCOC), you need to write a test approved by Transport Canada. The Approved Boating Basics Handbook can help you prepare for the exam. All you need to know for your test is presented in an easy-to-read format. This study guide meets all the standards established by Transport Canada's Office of Boating Safety.

Written by the Canadian Power & Sail Squadrons (CPS), The Approved Boating Basics Handbook is an introduction to the legal, and safe, practices of boating. The manual is designed for both home-study use and in-class instruction. This is an ideal manual for "about-to-be" boat owners, new boat owners, hunters, anglers, and cottagers who use their boat for transportation and pleasure.
