Hydraulic Steering Systems Are Not All Created Equally

Captain Frank Lecardo, the Owner and an instructor at the Naples School of Boating, is back with us!As the snowbird season started ramping up in South Florida, we were again reminded how different boating in other parts of the country is—many boaters don’t know the U.S. Coast Guard (USCG) rules of the road.New retirees arrive in Florida after years of boating on smaller lakes in the Midwest or bodies of water without much traffic. They’re excited to boat Florida’s waters but have a bit of a rude awakening.
