The Canadian Safe Boating Council is in the business of promoting safe and responsible boating in Canada.

[Port de Vancouver @PortVancouverFR]

2024 a été une autre année bien remplie pour les activités maritimes récréatives et les efforts de sensibilisation à la sécurité nautique dans les eaux qui constituent le Port de Vancouver.

Notre équipe de patrouilleurs portuaires a rencontré des centaines de plaisanciers et de pagayeurs pour promouvoir les meilleures pratiques de sécurité nautique, effectuer des vérifications de sécurité et fournir des directives ou des instructions de sécurité. Merci aux agences partenaires, y compris l'Institut canadien de sauvetage, @CSBCCANADA, @RCM_SAR, @VPDMarineUnit, @BoatingBC, et @icbc pour leur aide et leur soutien à nos initiatives de sécurité nautique, et aux plaisanciers pour leur respect des règles de sécurité tout au long de la saison. Pour en savoir plus sur nos efforts en matière de sécurité nautique pour 2024 et sur les impacts connexes, veuillez consulter le site 👇🏽

[Port of Vancouver @PortVancouver]

2024 was another busy year for recreational marine activities and boating safety awareness efforts within the waters that make up the Port of Vancouver.

Our harbour patrol team engaged with hundreds of boaters and paddlers to promote safe boating best practices, conduct safety checks, and provide safety directions or instructions. Thank you to partner agencies, including Canadian Lifeboat Institute, @CSBCCANADA, @RCM_SAR, @VPDMarineUnit, @BoatingBC and @icbc for assisting with—and supporting—our boating safety initiatives, and to boaters for their adherence to safety rules throughout the season.
