FWC law enforcement officers will be on hand for two of the events: the Kids Fishing Classic Jan. 30 and the Super Celebrity Fishing Classic Feb. 3. Officers will educate participants on boating safety basics, such as wearing a life jacket, maintaining proper lookout and developing a float plan.
“I encourage all participants, experienced or inexperienced boaters, to stop and chat with our officers. Everyone can use a refresher on boating safety. It’s a matter of personal responsibility,” said FWC Chairman Rodney Barreto, who is also chairman of the South Florida Super Bowl Host Committee.
