The U.S. Coast Guard Office of Boating Safety is dedicated to reducing loss of life, injuries and property damage that occurs on U.S. waterways by improving the knowledge, skills, and abilities of recreational boaters. Its many responsibilities include tracking boating accidents, looking for correlations among these incidents, recommending and implementing remedial measures, (such as recalls), and processing grants.

"At the NSBC, we are thankful for the vision and strategic insight of the U.S. Coast Guard Office of Boating Safety," said Peg Phillips, executive director of the National Safe Boating Council. "Their work supports a vibrant recreational boating safety industry that works tirelessly to save lives on the water."

The U.S. Coast Guard Office of Boating Safety encourages industry stakeholders to support the National Recreational Boating Safety Program (RBS Program). Since 1971, this program has saved an estimated 75,000 lives. And, while the estimated number of recreational boats has more than doubled, the number of reported boating incidents has decreased by more than 50%.

The Silver Schooner Award was established by the United Safe Boating Institute (USBI), and the NSBC continues the legacy by honoring those with significant contributions to the Council. The award may be given to individuals, organizations, commercial concerns, governmental agencies, and public and private clubs.
