CBC tracks members vs. Boats to ensure we do not have too few boats for too many members. CBC adds boats as members are welcomed. By tracking the usage of the boats by type and by location, CBC can determine the boats that are most popular so when a boat must be added, it is the right boat and is added to the right location.

All us coast guard required safety equipment including flares, horn, and approved floatation devices are on board each boat. CBC also includes an anchor and any lines and bumpers needed.

Additional training is also required prior to boating early or after hours.
