This bill requires the Coast Guard to study and report to Congress on recreational vessel operator training.

The report must analyze, among other topics,

minimum standards for education of recreational vessel operators;
how a federal training and testing program can be harmonized with state programs;
how the Coast Guard would administer a federal boating education, training, and testing program; and
the extent to which a federal boating education, training, and testing program should be required for all waters of a state.
