Do I need a boating license to operate a boat in NY?

Do i need a drivers license to operate a boat in Maine?

  • do I need a drivers license to operate a boat in Maine? I lost my licence yesterday and it would kill me if I cannot drive my beloved boats.

  • Answer:

    no, you do not need a DL to operate a boat in maine, but you do need a boaters education card. why did you loose your license??? boating in Maine (or any other state) requires that you follow all marine rules and regulations and operate you boat in a safe and sober manner. just like driving a car, there are severe penalities if you don't, these include penalities for Boating Under the Influence, and neglegent or recless operation of the boat. it is possible that a judge could take away your right to operate a boat if you were convicted of DUI or DWI, but it would be part of the court order. hope this helps
