A qualified event requires face-to-face interaction with community members. Participation on the water in regattas, races, opening days where there is little to no face-to-face interaction between officers/deputies and community members does not count as a "Community Event". Also, maintaining a screen line or security area at an on-water event does not count for reporting event hours on the SOAR. ■ Small Agency, 40 hours • Medium Agency, 150 hours • Large Agency, 275 hours • Vessel Dealer Site Visits: These are visits to vessel dealerships and brokers, where applicable, to ensure they are following dealer registration laws, educate them on any safety issues with type of vessels they sell, and checks that required safety equipment is on board during test rides and sea trials. Dealers should also be encouraged to remind their customers of the mandatory boater education requirement. Updated 10/1/2021 Page 18 of 26
