Published June
26, 2008
To help boaters
stay safe on the waters of Brazoria
County, Friends of the River San
Bernard will present a special event
for the boating public.
The Galveston Bay Power and Sail
Squadron will be on hand from 10
a.m. until 2 p.m. July 12 to inspect
boats and personal watercraft. The
free safety inspections will take
place at the F.O.R Community Center,
20450 CR 510-B in the Holiday Shores
Subdivision, Brazoria.
Power boat or personal watercraft
owners can bring them by trailer or
water for an inspection. Each
inspection lasts 15 to 20 minutes
with a sticker issued for those that
pass.
With the intention of fostering
personal safety on the water, The
Galveston Bay Power and Sail
Squadron will not issue citations.
If a watercraft does not pass
inspection, violations will be noted
so the owner can correct them.
Boaters interested in a free
inspection must register by July 10
at www.sanbernardriver.com.
For information, contact Pat Webb at
(979) 964-4503 or
pat(at)sanbernardriver.com.
