The U.S. Coast Guard is looking for boaters in Minnesota to sign up for a chance to participate in the National Recreational Boating Safety Survey. The survey is used to understand how many people go boating, what types of boats they use, and how often they are on the water.
Minnesota has 35 state water trails with over 4,500 miles of paddling opportunities. Check the Recommended Paddling Sections to narrow the search for an enjoyable paddling experience!
