Exploring the Coast Guard’s National Recreational Boating Safety Surveys

A team of State and Coast Guard members of NASBLA’s Engineering, Reporting & Analysis Committee (ERAC) hosted an hour-long webinar on the National Recreational Boating Safety Surveys (NRBSS). Jonathan Hsieh (CG-BSX), Tammy Terry (Ohio DNR), and Joanna Andrade (California Boating & Waterways) covered the purposes of the 2018 NRBSS Participation and Exposure surveys and how they were done; shared interesting findings from this last round and the benefits of understanding and using the results; and, received feedback on topics and questions that might make future surveys even more useful.
