Anybody who enjoys boating whether it is on a river, dam or the ocean, needs to know how to handle a watercraft. One family who lost their son, along with two other teenagers at sea, know the pain. To make sure it doesn’t happen again, they donated a rescue craft to the National Sea Rescue Institute (NSRI). This vessel will now be used to provide high school students with valuable motor boat handling skills and an official qualification, while they’re still at school. Watch the video to find out more about the vessel and its history.
