SaferBoater is a 501(c)3, South Carolina based boating foundation, professionally focused on developing and training safer and more competent boaters. Will you join us in our endeavor and save nearly 3,000 people from unnecessary death and injury in the coming year? Where it All Started Our non-profit foundation had made a home in beautiful historic Charleston, South Carolina, which is fitting, seeing that our state has more boating manufacturers than any state in the U.S. As a group of safe boating advocates and instructors dedicated to helping new boat drivers navigate the waterways safely, we have come together to focus our efforts on enhancing education for the boating industry, starting right here at home on some of the busiest waterways on the East Coast.
