BoatU.S. is on watch for recreational boaters on Capitol Hill with the Government Affairs team attending the latest Subcommittee on Coast Guard hearing. Focused on the recapitalization of the United States Coast Guard, hearings such as this are part of Congress’s oversight role.
The hearing highlighted critical issues, including the need for greater fiscal responsibility, project management, and the importance of integrity in leadership. These discussions are vital as they directly impact the efficiency and effectiveness of the Coast Guard, which plays a crucial role in ensuring the safety and security of our waterways.

We are committed to ensuring that the voices of recreational boaters are heard and that the Coast Guard is equipped to serve and protect our maritime community effectively.
