Free vessel safety checks for recreational boats will be offered from 7 a.m. until noon Saturday at Sportsmen’s Warehouse, 11505 N.E. Fourth Plain Road.
Boats which pass inspection will get a safety-check decal, which alerts law-enforcement agencies that the vessel was found in full compliance. Frequently, agencies will not board boats displaying a current-year decal.
Boats that do not pass will get a written report to use in correcting deficiencies.
