National Safe Boating Week | May 22-28, 2021
Boating is an incredible past time but like many of our favorite activities safety is of the utmost importance. Celebrate National Safe Boating Week annually to take a moment to review some of the most important boating safety tips. Share this information with family and friends who join you on the boat. You can never be too careful - fun boating is safe boating!
Wear Your Life Jacket to Work Day
May 21, 2021 is Wear Your Life Jacket to Work Day! MarineMax and the Safe Boating Campaign urge boaters to always wear a life jacket while on the water - and for one day, on land. Whether you're going fishing or enjoying a ride on a boat, safety should always come first. See how we participate at our locations around the country.
