Until 1999, anyone could operate a boat, regardless of boating safety knowledge, experience or training. A lot has changed to make our waterways safer since then. One important reason for fewer recreational boating deaths and injuries is the requirement that boat operators demonstrate their boating safety knowledge by obtaining proof of competency. 

Boaters who do not already proof of competency must obtain a PCOC. You do this by passing a boating safety test; usually the test is taken at the end of a boating safety course.

All boating safety courses and tests leading to the issuance of a PCOC are delivered by course providers accredited by Transport Canada. You can view the list of accredited course providers online Proof of competency for recreational boaters (canada.ca)

A pleasure craft license is a document containing a unique license number for a pleasure craft. The pleasure craft license number must be displayed on both sides of the bow. You can get a free license that is valid for 10 years by applying to Transport Canada. Application forms are available online   Pleasure craft licensing  (canada.ca)

By law, watercraft users in Saskatchewan are required to:

Drain your watercraft. Drain plugs must be pulled and watercrafts drained of standing water. It is illegal to transport your watercraft with a drain plug in place.

Stop at watercraft inspection stations. If you are transporting a watercraft or water related equipment you are required by law to stop in at watercraft inspection stations.
