Students will have time to complete the required NJSP paperwork and take a 60-question multiple-choice test.  We'll grade it right there and with a score of 80 or better, students will leave with a temporary boating safety certificate, and receive their NJSP issued card and NASBLA card in the mail a few months later.  The NASBLA card, when presented with the NJ Boat Safety Certificate, may be required when operating a vessel outside of New Jersey.  The temporary certificate is valid for one year. 

Payment of $50 cash or check payable to Boat Safe US, LLC  required at the proctored exam. Pre-payment for proctored exam is not available.
