The 2026 boating season is just around the corner, and we need your help to get our team ready! We are looking for four local boaters to volunteer their vessels for our annual Watercraft Inspector Training.

By bringing your boat, you’ll help new and returning staff practice the inspection procedures that keep aquatic invasive species out of our waters.

As a thank you, volunteers receive an additional $10 discount on their 2026 Annual Permit. This can be combined with your 2026 AIS Awareness Course discount code for even more savings!

Interested? Contact the Whatcom Boat Inspection Program Hotline at (360) 778-7975 or email us at ais@cob.org to sign up.
