I will be instructing a Whitewater Boat Operators course for Tualatin Valley Fire and Rescue from 4/14 to 4/19. Pardon our wakes, we will do our best to make our presence as low impact as possible.

Note: We had another drift boat accident this weekend. It was in the mine field area which is formidable water for even the best of operators.

Please be safe.

I'd rather be swamped by a rescue boat than anybody else. At least you'd be trained to pick me out of the water :wink:

Captjohn,

Do you folks offer a course for private boat owners also?

Captjohn,

Your crews are always the most polite boats on the river!! :grin: graemlins/applause.gif They go out of their way to make their presence on the river as low impact to others as possible!! Great People, and I for one feel better knowing your crews are on the river!!! graemlins/applause.gif :bowdown: graemlins/applause.gif

Captjohn, like Brion, I would be interested in such a course too. It never hurts to learn more about operating a boat safely.
