New Video – Electronic Navigation with GPS

Raleigh, NC, March 31, 2019 --(PR.com)-- The United States Power Squadrons® (USPS) continues the debut of its third season of safe-boating videos on America’s Boating Channel™ with “Electronic Navigation with GPS,” which can be found online at americasboatingchannel.com and as a free mobile app available at Apple’s App Store and Google Play.

The new “Electronic Navigation with GPS” video shows how the Global Positioning System (GPS) can benefit recreational vessel navigation.

Viewers will learn how to create waypoints and define routes for chart-plotting with GPS.

Also featured are tips about additional GPS functions and displays.

The “Electronic Navigation with GPS” video is also being distributed by America’s Boating Channel through popular social media including Facebook, Twitter, and YouTube.

America’s Boating Channel is now releasing a new safe-boating video every Friday as most Americans prepare for the recreational boating season.

Topics covered in the new series include cold water survival, life jacket wear, human-propelled sports, electronic navigation, situational awareness, and boating under the influence (BUI).

All video programming on the channel is offered at no charge.

America’s Boating Channel is produced by United States Power Squadrons under a grant from the Sport Fish Restoration and Boating Trust Fund administered by the U.S. Coast Guard.

As the premier boating organization dedicated to “Safe Boating through Education” since 1914, USPS is America’s Boating Club® -- For Boaters, By Boaters™.

America’s Boating Channel partners with BoatUS and is cosponsored by Discover Boating with a contribution from Weems & Plath.

Boat Owners Association of The United States (BoatUS), is the nation's largest organization of recreational boat owners, with over half a million members, providing diverse services, advocacy, and savings since 1966.

Discover Boating is a public awareness effort managed by the National Marine Manufacturers Association (NMMA) focused on increasing participation and creating interest in recreational boating.
